Kill The Moonlight
A twisted mid-90s comedy disguised as a 1970s drive-in film, Kill The Moonlight is the story of Chance - fish hatchery worker, toxic waste cleaner and aspiring racecar driver, whose goal in life is to fix up his Camaro and follow his dreams of championship glory.
Director Steven Hanft captures the West Coast slacker vibe with laconic pacing, bizarre humour and a stock-car-racing hero, who also happened to provide the inspiration behind Beck's 1994 hit, "Loser." Samples from the film appeared in the song, and clips from the film were part of the "Loser" video, also directed by Hanft.

This was a great film, I knew I was going to enjoy it when the first scenes of stock cars and nasty Link-Wray-style surf burst vividly on to the screen. After ...
