Hell Drivers. Stanley Baker is the greatest movie star you’ve never heard of. Cracking movie.

Missed this comment previously. And I agree about Stanley Baker.

What a stacked film of British stars tho, i remember being astonished when i first watched it.

i also liked Violent Playground as David Macallum worked again with Stanley in it iirc.

Yeah, cracking film. Tense, gritty.

It’s in you tube. I was well impressed by it.

Awesome film! Me (36) and all the over 60 year old truck drivers at work agree, probably part of the reason we work in transport

Great film. Love the scene when they open the door of the truck and Herbert Lom looks forward but has the wrench in his hand.
