Hello, today I talk about the 1967 outlaw biker film The Born Losers which introduced the audience to the character of Billy Jack. This movie would change the landscape of how independent filmmaking was done. Tom Laughlin stars as Billy Jack plus he wrote and directed the film. In this movie, Billy Jack who looks down on society must protect a rape victim from further attacks by a motorcycle club and he must fight them alone for no one else has the guts to stand up to the biker gang. This would spawn three more movies in the Billy Jack saga. Hopefully, you enjoy my review of The Born Losers. Thank you for the amazing support and also thank you for allowing me to continue what I love doing.

2 Recommendations

Hello, today I talk about the final chapter in the Walking Tall trilogy. The movie shows how Buford lives a year after his wife's death and how he tries to cope with it. Also, Buford loses his job as sheriff after a lawyer fixes the election so that he loses the job of sheriff and his enemies want revenge. Including a man who Buford beats and sends his son Robby to an orphanage. But once the man named O.Q. teal and his brother are let out they attack Buford's car and attack Buford, and after Buford dispatches them the new sheriff asks the townspeople if they did in fact see if Buford was attacked but the townspeople say no. Leading to Buford's friend and lawyer Lloyd Tatum to say to Buford they forget what you did for them really easily. Later in the movie, Buford's life story is made into a film in which he breaks down during the showing of his wife's death in the movie having to relive it in the theater. Also, Buford buys minibikes for his kids and a nice Corvette for himself. Finally, the ending shows him dying after he loses control of his car and is ejected from the car. Some say he was murdered and the movie makes you wonder if the same people he fought against came back to finish the job they once tried to finish before and failed. The end. Thank you for the amazing support on the podcast.
