"Double Nickels" is one of the many good, but virtually unknown, 1970's era car chase thrillers. Jack Vacek (director/star) was a "Gone in 60 Seconds" veteran and offers some unusual twists. The Pinto being chased down the stairs is a good example of originality in the car chase format. An entertaining first solo effort. Other work by Vacek is seen in Halicki cult classics "The Junkman" and "Deadline Auto Theft." Vacek also produced a decent film around 1987 called "Deadly Addiction."
