Angels from Hell
open-in-new
<h2 id="plot">Plot</h2> <p>A former motorcycle club leader, Mike (Tom Stern), returns home a <a href="/facts/War_hero/9hEQ5g3T">war hero</a> from <a href="/facts/Vietnam/0ulfA8Eq">Vietnam</a> to resume his life, and reunite with his former motorcycle club. Finding they have left their former <a href="/facts/Riverside%2c_California/FzK1fJUQ">Riverside, California</a> home base, Mike meets them in <a href="/facts/Bakersfield%2c_California/7bU3wpSr">Bakersfield, California</a>, now riding under the leadership of a new president, Big George. Working with his former gang, Mike takes over the club from George, and moves into their biker farmhouse, owned by Ginger (<a href="/facts/Arlene_Martel/jTxGH5YB">Arlene Martel</a>). Running up against opposition from Sheriff Bingham (<a href="/facts/Jack_Starrett/fF0GhKmF">Jack Starrett</a>), who had an arrangement with George to "keep the peace," Mike sets out to use all his experience as a hero from the war to unite all the existing motorcycle clubs in California to create a brand new, "super outlaw" club. Skirmishes with the sheriff's department deputies break out, and the conflicts culminate when Speed (<a href="/facts/Stephen_Oliver_(actor)/3d9vE7vj">Stephen Oliver</a>), one of Mike's gang members, is stopped on fake possession charges, and murdered when he tries to escape. The trouble intensifies when an all-out cop-against-biker war breaks out.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4"><sup>4</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="cast">Cast</h2> <ul><li>Tom Stern as Mike</li> <li><a href="/facts/Ted_Markland/LRTm3JSa">Ted Markland</a> as Smiley</li> <li><a href="/facts/Jack_Starrett/fF0GhKmF">Jack Starrett</a> as Bingham</li> <li><a href="/facts/Arlene_Martel/jTxGH5YB">Arlene Martel</a> as Ginger</li> <li>Paul Bertoya as Nutty Norman</li> <li>Jimmy Murphy as Tiny Tim</li> <li>Sandra Bettin (credited as Saundra Gayle)</li> <li>Bob Harris as Baney</li> <li>Luana Talltree as Angry Annie</li> <li>Susanne Walters as Saundra Gayle</li> <li>Rod Wilmoth as Police Officer</li> <li><a href="/facts/Stephen_Oliver_(actor)/3d9vE7vj">Stephen Oliver</a> as Speed</li> <li>Pepper Martin as Dennis</li> <li>Jay York as George</li> <li>Ginger Snapp as Buff</li> <li>Lori Hay as Go Go Dancer</li> <li>Lee Stanley as Reynolds</li> <li>Doug Hume as Crowley</li> <li>Jim Reynolds as Durkens</li> <li>Steven Rogers as Dude</li> <li>Susan Holloway as Jennifer</li> <li>Judith Garwood as Louise</li> <li>Tony Rush as Hippie Child</li> <li>Maureen Heard as Hippie Girl</li> <li>Barry Feinstein as The Prophet</li> <li>Dodie Warren as Hippie Girl's Mother</li> <li>Wally Berns as Hippie Girl's Father</li> <li>Cynthia McAdams as Pearl</li> <li><a href="/facts/Bud_Ekins/p8tARSuY">Bud Ekins</a> as The Scrambler</li> <li>The Madcaps Of Bakersfield</li></ul> <h2 id="see-also">See also</h2> <ul><li><a href="/facts/List_of_American_films_of_1968/3Mga0Xh0">List of American films of 1968</a></li></ul> <h2 id="external-links">External links</h2> <ul><li><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062669/"><i>Angels from Hell</i></a> at <a href="/facts/IMDb_(identifier)/uWrqVYVy">IMDb</a></li></ul> <h2 id="references">References</h2> <ol> <li id="fn:1"><p>Thompson, Howard (1968-10-24).
