THE SIDEHACKERS
(AKA: FIVE THE HARD WAY)(1969)
In the set: 100 Greatest Cult Classics


I'm pretty old but I've never heard of "Sidehacking"!
Apparently it's motorcycle racing with a sidecar! Who
knew!!?? Another side note here, this is Goldie
Hawn's third acting gig!

This is a mean-spirited movie, and not much about
the side hacking that it's name represents! Not
a good watch! D-

From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

This movie went nowhere. They padded the first
fifteen minutes with "sidehacking," but sort
of forgot about it for the rest of the film.
The concept of "sidehacking" was pretty lame,
so it's probably better, that the filmmakers
didn't make some "Days of Thunder" movie out
of it. Still, the movie made me want to cry.

For some reason (Rommel won't be the other
guy's sidehacking partner) one guy gets mad
at the other and killing ensues. A girl pretends
Rommel has raped/ravaged her, because he rejects
her advances. This happens to be the psychotic
boyfriend, who absolutely wants Rommel to be
his "sidehacking" partner. It ends with the
glorious death of the protagonist. Everybody
dies. Yea! - nathan-kieso
