HELLS ANGELS ON WHEELS (1967)
Starring: Jack Nicholson, Adam Roarke, Sabrina Scharf, and Sonny Barger.
In a dusty and rugged part of San Francisco, the hard rock, brawlers, and hippies capital of the 1960s, 'Poet' was a restless young man working a dead end job at a gas station. Already a seasoned street fighter, his temper was short, made even more volatile by crusty scalawags who kept testing him. Every interaction could end up with him dealing out an asswhooping and Poet knew that his time at this job would be short. One day, a band of Hells Angels riders stopped by the gas station. For Poet, nothing was more alluring than being a member of one of the largest and most notorious outlaw motorcycle clubs in the country, and he made up his mind as he took in the acrid fumes and the growling thunder of Harleys idling around him. One thing led to another and Poet was invited to become a hangaround of the club, and then a patch-rocking prospect. However, as Poet's rough and tumble nature carried him up through the ranks of the club, he learned that with every step in that organization came with hard prices to pay, far harder than a metal chain enclosed haymaker connecting with a skull in the most brutal alley fight...
Playing the President of the Hells Angels MC in this movie is none other than Sonny Barger himself, who in 1967 was the chapter president of the Oakland, California HAMC charter.
