About Vic Holtreman
Vic Holtreman founded the popular movie news site ScreenRant.com back in 2003 - and, with the help of a talented editorial team, turned Screen Rant into one of the most-respected websites covering the film industry. Prior to starting Screen Rant, Vic had been employed as a door to door salesman, construction worker, car salesman, waiter, mechanical drafter, mechanical designer, system administrator and finally an SEO specialist (experience that became instrumental in Screen Rant's success). Long before he started writing online, he has always been a huge Sci-Fi fan - starting with "The Twilight Zone" and "Outer Limits" when he was still too young for kindergarten, graduating to "Star Trek" reruns in the 70’s and of course fully initiated by the original "Star Wars." He's also a big comic book fan (and still buys them) and lover of superheros, action movies, and the occasional horror flick.

'Drive Angry 3D' Review
'Drive Angry 3D' is for a very narrow movie-going niche audience. An audience that has nostalgia for hard-R '70s exploitation flicks - or those too young to have seen those and yearn for a balls to the wall, take no prisoners B-movie.
