Description by OLDIES.com:

A band of schizo bikers meets a van of wasted hippies in a weird ghost town, and their mutual anarchy evolves into a free-form orgy. This biker movie glows with raw, primitive energy, rustic location shooting, a progressive rock score, and a group of the most unscrubbed characters you're ever likely to see. A fascinating 70's look at hippy culture vs. biker culture, the two groups seem originally destined for compatibility, with their goal-less philosophy and wandering, nomadic lifestyle, but the disparity between the pacifism of the hips and the impulsive, war-like misery of the alcoholic bikers soon erupts into all-out war, symbolized by the murder of a hippy chick. The stoned losers roll between angry despair and reckless bravado, ending in a mutual impasse that reinforces their elemental hopelessness. This film powerfully discloses the disintegration of a culture that feeds on its own spiritual rootlessness.
