We first met Adam Roarke in a one-sided communion with the big screen, back when the lanky Brooklyner was one of the brighter lights of the biker flicks.

Story-wise, The Glory Stompers carries a ring of the perpetual struggle of the sacred vs. the profane, with a bracing suggestion that the profane might even be winning... continue reading
