"TANK™" (Grindhouse Trailer)

Maurice Ripke stars as The Rider, a stranger cruising the drags of a drug ravaged future in search of the ultimate high, TANK! Along the way he meets up with The Babe, a beautiful but dangerous woman, whom The Rider believes he can use as a trade for his next hit. But when his deal goes sour, The Rider barely makes it out alive. Now, with an army of drug fiends and thugs close behind, The Rider returns to settle the score and get his last fix! .. "TANK" was created as part of the 2007 SXSW Grindhouse 101 Trailer Competition hosted by filmmaker Robert Rodriguez. It was shot over the course of two days in various locations in and around the city of Austin, TX.
