Two rival motorcycle gangs terrorize a small town after one of their leaders is thrown in jail.

Stanley Kramer's stylized portrait of America's rebellious youth is considered the original motorcycle movie. Like a swarm of insects, Johnny's motorcycle club roams the countryside terrorizing one small-town after another. His gang of forty vicious hoodlums resents discipline, challenges authority and mocks convention. Riding into yet another township, they vandalize stores and trample private property. Meanwhile, Johnny romances Kathie, the pretty but repressed daughter of a local police officer. But when the gang spins out of control, an innocent man is accidentally killed and Johnny becomes the scapegoat.
