Death Race: Inferno

Death Race: Inferno follows Carl Lucas, also known as Frankenstein, a convicted criminal and star driver in a brutal prison racing competition. He has already won four races, and one more victory would secure his freedom along with that of his crew. Instead, he and his team are moved to a different prison and entered into a new event staged in the Kalahari desert of southern Africa, where powerful figures behind the race work against him. Meanwhile, a marketer approaches another character with plans to turn the Death Race into a franchised spectacle.

The film is directed by Roel Reiné, the eighth of 21 features he has directed in chronological order, coming after The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption and before 12 Rounds 2: Reloaded. Tony Giglio wrote the screenplay, and Paul W. S. Anderson, Jeremy Bolt and Mike Elliott produced. Luke Goss plays Lucas, with Ving Rhames, Danny Trejo, Tanit Phoenix, Dougray Scott and Robin Shou among the cast, which numbers 36 credited performers and 100 credited crew.

Released in January 2013, the film runs 104 minutes and falls within the action, science fiction and thriller genres. It was produced in the United States on a budget of 7 million dollars. On TMDB it holds a rating of 5.9 out of 10 from 855 votes, indicating a modest reception from that audience.
