Motorpsycho
Motorpsycho or Motor Psycho is a 1965 film by Russ Meyer. Produced just before Meyer's better-known Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! (1965), the film explores similar themes of sex and violence but focuses on a male motorcycle gang rather than the female gang of go-go dancers featured in the later film. Motorpsycho also contains one of the first portrayals of a disturbed Vietnam veteran character in film.
Plot
A veterinarian's wife is raped by a motorcycle gang led by a sadistic Vietnam War veteran. After the gang kills an old man, the veterinarian and his wife resolve to hunt the gang.
