Wow, I'm already in love in the middle of the pilot. Anyone bitching about this being the "lowest point of television, yadda-yadda..." has clearly no f---ing clue what a grindhouse flick is. Basically this show is the group sex lovechild of Carmageddon, Fast&Furious, Evil dead, Mad Max, '80s buddy-cop movies, Vampire the Masquerade LARP, Judge Dredd and literally everything Rob Zombie ever made. It's an over the top caricature of a distopia, and it doesn't want to be more than that. But AT that, it excels. Hear me out. The basics of the genere are there: 35mm/VHS quality, gore, overacting, etc. But the subtle stuff is where it all comes together: the music, camera, atmosphere is remarkably well done. So if you've ever seen a grindhouse flick, and thought "F--k, It's dumb, hilarious and awesome at the same time", you will love Blood drive. And that scene where the race starts, and Skillet's "Back from the dead" starts to play... I had to rewind it three times, because it's f---ing magnificent.
