Movies: Skinheads


Shaved Heads, Nose Rings, Frightful Tattoos, and a look in their eyes of cold raw evil. These are the Skinheads. With no respect for human life (or each other) they track down any who offend them. Willie, a black twelve year old who is witness to their ruthless robbery and beatings, summons a street gang of tough young blacks. In a mountain cafe miles from the nearest town, the two gangs meet up and the bloodshed begins. Tiny and Paul are shot and Carla, their friend, is crushed to death by Brains, the big Skinhead Simpleton. The gripping final battle forces the young heroes to use all their wits and guile to survive the onslaught of Damon and his deadly crew of Skinheads.

And according to one IMDB reviewer: "The Second Coming of Hate features what is probably Chuck Connors' finest performance. Connors was an American treasure and without a doubt the greatest film actor this nation has ever produced. To say that this film contains his finest performance is to say that this film contains what may very well be the greatest acting tour de force ever caught upon film. It is a modern tragedy that Skinheads: The Second Coming of Hate is rarely, if ever, mentioned as one of the great films of the 1980s, let alone one of the great American films of all times."
