Manu Bennett, Marci Miller, and Malcolm McDowell feature in the political satire and action picture Death Race 2050, which was released in the United States in 2017 and was directed by G.J. Echternkamp. It is a continuation of the film Death Race 2000, which was released in 1975. Roger blog Corman, who was responsible for the production of both movies, referred to the second one as "a car-racing picture with some dark comedy."

What is the storyline of Death Race 2050 exactly?

The year 2050 has arrived. In the United Corporations of America, which suffers from an unemployment rate of 99.993 percent and an excessive population, the Death Race serves the dual purpose of providing entertainment and regulating the population. The current iteration of the Death Race takes competitors from Old New York to New Los Angeles, and the defending champion is Frankenstein. In this competition, Frankenstein faces up against a genetically engineered athlete named Jed Perfectus, a hip-hop star named Minerva Jefferson, a female cultist named Tammy the Terrorist, and an evil, black, artificially intelligent, self-driving automobile named ABE. Each participant in the race is given a proxy, who is a broadcaster who provides the viewers with a virtual reality experience of the competition. Annie Sullivan, who acts as Frankenstein's surrogate, quickly puts him off, and he dismisses both her efforts to interview him and her recommendations that he should let his opponents pass him by.

As the drivers race along the East Coast, Alexis Hamilton's rebels install traps. Tammy and Minerva compete over cult members to murder. ABE malfunctions, kills its proxy, and abandons the race to find its purpose. First, Hamilton instructs her spy Annie to assassinate Frankenstein. She fails to seduce him since he just worries about winning. The Chairman says Frankenstein's longevity is a problem, but Perfectus will urge his devotees to die.

On Day two of the race, the competitors will make their way through the country's heartland, an area that is well-known for the high prevalence of gun ownership among its residents. A suicide bomber sent by Tammy is successful in taking the life of Chi Wapp, who was acting as Minerva's proxy. When Frankenstein tries to save time on another tip, he takes a shortcut, but this causes his automobile to get stuck in a cornfield. As Annie goes out on her own, Frankenstein defends himself against a team of Resistance ninjas in order to rack up more points. As soon as they reach the second checkpoint, Annie confesses that she is a member of the resistance and makes an effort to enlist Frankenstein. Frankenstein, who is uninterested in politics, expresses his disdain for both the opposition and the government while maintaining that his only objective is to come out on top. Minerva admits to Annie when they are both drinking at a pub that she is a highly educated academic who, in order to maintain her lifestyle, has adopted the persona of a stereotypical hip-hop character. When Annie returns to Frankenstein's chamber, Perfectus, who is envious of Frankenstein's notoriety and sex appeal, is about to kill Frankenstein, but Annie manages to spare his life. In the meanwhile, it has been found that Hamilton and the Chairman have been conspiring together behind the scenes.

On Day 3 of the race, the government gives the drivers "approved" routes to take so they can avoid attacks from the Resistance. Frankenstein's right arm was hurt when he fought Perfectus, so Annie helps him change gears. Minerva tries to catch Tammy, but Tammy's suicide attempt makes Minerva fall off a cliff. Tammy is happy about Minerva's death until an ABE comes back, hits her against the wall, and then blows itself up. This kills them both. Hamilton and her rebels are killed by Frankenstein and Annie, while Perfectus takes a secret path to the finish line. Both cars try to get ahead until Perfectus loses control of his and crashes into the control booth for virtual reality. Before crossing the finish line, Frankenstein sends a message to his fans suggesting that the Chairman himself is worth 1,000 points. After Frankenstein kills the Chairman, the crowd cheers. He then tells them to stop living in a virtual world and start their own Death Race. As the country falls into violent chaos, Frankenstein and Annie watch from a distance and suggest that they should repopulate the country after the chaos has stopped.

How did the film Death Race 2050 become made?

In an interview, an Italian journalist said that The Hunger Games reminded him of the film Death Race 2000. Universal Pictures, the studio behind the current film, was contacted by Corman to reinstate the dark humor from the original. "You did well, but you removed the pedestrian killings and broken-society themes," said Corman.

The production of the movie started while Roger Corman was far into his 90s and during the presidential election of 2016. It focuses on a successful businessman who is now serving as Chairman of the United Corporations of America. In response to a question from an interviewer, Corman said, "The president does have a hair style which may be approaching Trump's hair style," but he did not want to get too far into the topic since "Trump will come and go and the film will endure."

How good was Death Race 2050?

"There are a lot of Death Races in a movie about the Death Race ending. A decade after the Death Race trilogy with Jason Statham, Roger Corman returns with Death Race 2050. Despite being excellent films in their own right, they have nothing to do with the original Death Race 2000. So Corman re-routes this fiery catastrophe with a three-day race across a dystopian America, where pedestrian deaths get points for outrageous personalities! But with a 50 at the end." - YouTuber Decker Shado

The movie came out in the U.S. on DVD and a DVD/Blu-ray combo with three making-of documentaries: The Making of 2050, The Look of 2050, and Cars! So many cars! It came out on March 20, 2017, in the U.K.

According to RottenTomatoes.com, the film currently has an 88 percent approval rating with an average rating of 6.8/10 based on eight reviews.

Chris Alexander described the movie in an article for ComingSoon.net as "loud, strident, spastic, sadistic, stylish, slipshod, foolish, and brilliant in equal amounts." Film critic Scott Weinberg, writing for the website Nerdist, described the production as "all extremely awkward and rickety and kitschy, but that's just part of the'shaggy dog' appeal of the production." And a review that was published on a website by Zavala said that the film "has enough blood, guts, naive political commentary, scenery chewing, and bad special effects for it to become a cult classic."
