The only redeeming trait is what I’m sure Asylum hoped to lure their viewers by and it’s Vaginamyte. I Loved Vaginamyte, and both Double Dee-struction and Queen Bee were two of the sexiest women I’ve seen in an Asylum flick since “The Hitchhiker.” And I enjoyed looking at their car “The Lotus.”

There's something very noble about "Death Racers" and it's this: "Death Race" by Paul WS Anderson was just an adaptation of the video game "Twisted Metal" pretending to be a remake. "Death Racers" doesn't pretend. Its C grade trash taking off from "Twisted Metal" and it makes no illusions about it. So for once, I have to give respect to The Asylum. Sure it's a rip off of "Death Race 2000" where the writers even prop the characters to call the big death race "Death Race" but Asylum makes no bones about this movie and even includes the points system; Anderson didn’t even have the balls for that. That doesn't make it good, though. Granted, the poster art is magnificent, but "Death Racers" is a flinging piece of crap, a sheer opportunity for schlock that fails big time from minute one. Aside from paying considerable lip service and basically deifying ICP for starring in this POS, "Death Racers" features some of the usual horrible performances from the cast of usual suspects with a format much like "Death Race."

Some times there are real hints of innovation and then minutes later it’s just bargain basement bullshit that made the film seem as if it was made for a little over a hundred bucks. Meanwhile there are zero protagonists that allow us to connect to the proceedings on screen. Every character is nothing but a one note concept that can’t go beyond ninety minutes and we never grab any sort of essence in to their personality. Everyone feels like a throwaway character thus the movie just gets very boring quickly. The acting is on par with what you’ll usually find in an Asylum feature, but the worst performance is by Robert Pike Daniel who is absolutely horrible as Governor Black who runs the death race. “Death Racers” doesn’t get my usual scorn since it’s not as bad as other Asylum wastes, but it’s the sign of a crap movie when you have no one to root for in a movie filled with flashy characters.

While it is a flinging piece of swill, "Death Racers" has a lot of potential to be great and that greatness shines through once or twice through the ninety minute tedium, horrific acting and typical Asylum writing that opts for Paul WS Anderson flash instead of breaking out on its own. But then there are the cars, and... Vaginamyte, so... it's occasionally so bad it's good. But still bad.
