Knightriders Ratings & Reviews
- Gabriel Sebastião da Silva Basilio13 april 2026One of low rated Romero´s best movies. Great story and characters concept, very ambitious. It´s an action packed, funny flick about being in an outcast group.
- funnyquestion22 februari 2025What a boring movie this was. Saw the poster and the director and thought it could at least be fun bad...it was just bland and a let down
