Return Of The Rebels (1981)

A motorcycle gang reunites after 20 years to help a former member's wife (Barbara Eden) whose tourist business is being threatened by a gang of hell raising river rats led by a sociopathic punk (Patrick Swayze). Directed by Noel Nosseck (YOUNGBLOOD). A rather moronic TV movie that only has two pluses. Its appealing cast and the handsome Lake Havasu, Arizona landscape setting. In one of his earliest leading roles, Swayze is just awful. One would never guess he actually had talent though to be fair, I suspect Nosseck's poor direction had something to do with it. As always, the lovely Eden is eminently likable. With Don Murray, Jamie Farr, Christopher Connelly and Robert Mandan.
