Death Race - Stills, Trailer

Back in the 1970's Roger Corman produced a low budget sci-fi action flick called Death Race 2000. In 2008, Paul WS Anderson (Resident Evil, Event Horizon) is giving us his take on the story. Instead of doing a straight remake, he has seen fit to change some of the details. Now, this would have been better had they chosen a different name. Yes, the race is presented as a spectator sport, but there is no mention of a points system, instead, the winner gets to go free. You see, all of the participants are convicted criminals. I have a feeling I will enjoy this, but it is not Death Race until I hear about points for running over babies and Euthanasia Day at the hospital. Jason Statham stars in this version, joined by Tyrese Gibson, Ian McShane, Joan Allen, and Natalie Martinez. Below is the trailer and a number of stills
