Frankenstein Created Bikers is a 2016 exploitation movie directed by James Bickert, who also wrote the script with his partner in star-crime, Brian K. Williams. The film is full of over-the-top characters, scenes of gore, and is a love letter to the exploitation films of the '70s and '80s. The plot centers on the machinations of a particularly evil biker gang, The Sinners, who are led by a ruthless hoodlum named Queenie. In a plot twist that only fans of the genre will appreciate, Queenie has managed to obtain the reanimated body of the legendary scientist, Dr. Frankenstein. Queenie believes that Frankenstein's knowledge will help him create the ultimate weapon: a biker army that can never die.

Fortunately, there are those who would stand against such unspeakable evil, and this is where the film's main protagonist, the beautiful and tough-as-nails Maria, comes in. Maria is the leader of a rival biker gang known as The Sisters of Satan, and after she learns of Queenie's nefarious plans, she sets in motion an epic battle between The Sisters and The Sinners.

The cast of the film is a veritable who's who of cult cinema, with memorable performances from Laurence R. Harvey, who many will remember from The Human Centipede 2, and Tristan Risk, who starred in American Mary. The film's lead, Jett Bryant, is fantastic as Maria, and has a gravitas and screen presence that sets her apart from many of her contemporaries.

One of the standout aspects of Frankenstein Created Bikers is its commitment to practical effects. Fans of gore and practical makeup will adore the movie's commitment to creating some truly disgusting and memorable visuals. The film's violence is often over-the-top and brutal, but never feels exploitative or gratuitous. Instead, the violence feels like an extension of the film's off-kilter humor and hyper-stylized aesthetic.

That aesthetic is worth discussing in more detail, as it's perhaps the film's strongest attribute. Frankenstein Created Bikers looks and feels like it was shot in the '70s or '80s, with a grainy, washed-out look that evokes the era's low-budget exploitation films. From the costume design to the production design, every aspect of the film is designed to feel like a throwback to the films of that era.

Given its status as an exploitation film, Frankenstein Created Bikers isn't a movie for everyone. Those with a delicate constitution or who are easily offended by extreme violence and sexual content might want to give the film a wide berth. But for fans of the genre, and for those who appreciate films that are unapologetically weird and over-the-top, Frankenstein Created Bikers is an absolute delight.

In conclusion, Frankenstein Created Bikers is a wild, off-kilter, and often hilarious ride through the darkest corners of the exploitation film world. With an amazing cast, a memorable story, and some truly unforgettable practical effects, the film is a must-see for fans of cult cinema.
