The Choppers (1961)
Director: Leigh Jason
Writer: Arch Hall Sr. (writer)
Release Date: 30 November 1961 (USA)
Genre: Drama
Runtime: 1h 05min



A gang of teenage delinquents terrorize a small community by stealing cars and stripping them for parts, then selling the parts to a crooked junkyard owner.


The police and an insurance company investigator set out to break up the gang.


It is a classic drive-in exploitation flick that features the debut of sixteen year-old Arch Hall Jr. as Cruiser, the spoiled rich kid with a taste for crime and his band of troubled teens who call themselves cool names like Torch, Flip and Snoop, and specialize in stripping cars in record time. This is the movie that made you mom weak in the knees and your daddy worried about the crowd you run with.


Featuring the some exceptional less-than-hit songs from the awesome Arch Hall Jr, including non-classics like "Konga Joe" and "Monkey In A Hatband".
