Overview

Traxx has battled his way through El Salvador, the Middle East and Nicaragua, spitting lead with two-handed good grace. He decides to retire to a life of baking designer cookies. Running out of dough to buy more dough, he hires himself as a “Town Tamer” and begins cleaning up Hadleyville, Texas, telling the lowlife street scum, “You got three choices. Be good, be gone, or be dead.” Like all bacteria, the scum are resistant: crime boss Aldo Palucci (Robert Davi) brings in the dreaded Guzik brothers to rid the town of the town tamer, setting the stage for a showdown in the streets.

Viewing Notes

First flick in Paul’s “no theme” watch party via Kast. Based on the clues he provided earlier in the week I suspected that TRAXX was one of the movies. Since it was one I haven’t seen yet heard often heard about I joined the watch party while I ate my late dinner. This is a little worse than I anticipated. However, it does have its moments and it is certainly a movie that is better viewed with others having fun with it and making fun of it. It’s just too dopey for me to care about or want to revisit.
