That movie ROCKED!!! I will have to catch it in HD. Maybe will have to eat some Grilled Cheese Sandwiches in honor of cheesy 80's movies...

Did you see the Tres Amigos on INHD? It featured Hans Ray and Brian Lopes...

Damn, wish I had direct tv, love that movie. Hard pressed to pick a favorite betweeen RAD and Gleaming the Cube. Trying to find a dvd of each of them but they usually go for crazy money on ebay. Somebody needs to buy the rights to some of those classic, cheesy 80s flicks that are out of print and reissue them. As popular as the old tv shows are on dvd, you would think the movies would make someone some cash.

Can someone who taped this movie make me a copy?
I don't have IN HD channels...just regular basic CHEAP cable!

Somebody help me out, willing to pay for the memorie of
seeing the twins do the "Dance Fever" thing and watch
a very Stiff Bart Conner dancing. :OD

RAD was good, but what about BMX Bandits???? Anyone remember that one? Watched it too many times on HBO when I was a kid.

a friend of mine has RAD on laserdisc and made me a DVD copy. if it weren't currently packed away in my storage garage i'd make copies for everyone.

RAD is by far my favorite 80's movie

more Rad trivia

love it! thanks.

in other trivia news, my pa designed the poster/cover for the movie. I got to sit and watch the computer graphics guys tweak the photo. And as a 22 yr old into bikes, well, it was the sh*t.

Lol!

I remember that one! With Nicole Kidman before she was famous..she looked really young in that movie with a HEAVY Australian accent (it's somehow disappeared now that she's super-famous now)
They tried to make the story for that movie to be serious but seriously...it wasn't

I recently saw the movie along as a combo DVD with Evil Knievel..It was so bad that they had to release it with another bad movie lol.

While we're talking about Sports oriented movies, has anyone ever seen that movie "Skateboard" with Tony Alva, and Leif Garret?
Another laugh-fest.

Absolutely fantastic movie.

The Reynolds twins (Rex and Rod...priceless) in their fully choreographed dance sequence with Foxy and Tiger is far and away the most 80's-ist thing you've ever seen...

That is, until two minutes later when Lori Loughlin and Bill Allen dance...on their bikes...to, "Send Me an Angel."

Not to mention Talia Shire. Who, I have to admit is kind of a babe.

Jack Weston as Duke Best.

Ray Walston in his best role since "Johnny Dangerously."

This movie has everything. 2 smiley-winky-face-thumbs up from me. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I was lucky enough to catch this movie last year at a local theatre that plays quirky movies, often 80's, for their midnight showing. They projected it on the big screen from the original vhs, complete with trailer for "The Dirt Bike Kid" starring Peters Billingsley. Best night of my life.

I need to dig out my dvd copy also. Mine isn't in storage so I'm sure I'd find it faster....

I watched it last night on HD... That movie was so awesome! It brought back so many memories of my childhood. My wife hasn't stopped making fun of me... I keep walking around signing, "send me an angel... whoo wa whoo... send me an angel... whoo wa whoo... right now..."
