Gangland
Undercover
is an interesting series that explores the lethal nature of Biker
Gangs and just what it takes to become one of them. This show's
existence is no doubt owed to AMC's Sons
of Anarchy,
created by Charles Falco who was a former ATF confidential informant
(C/S) who infiltrated an outlaw motorcycle gang. The six
episode-series is based on Falco's 2013 memoir Vagos,
Mongols, and Outlaws: My Infiltration of America's Deadliest Biker
Gangs.
The
six episodes spanning two discs include Going
Under,
A
Tough Prospect
Patched
in Dangerous Game,
Solitary,
and Endgame
and
all form the arch of the story and his journey through the gang to
becoming a trusted member.
The
show is pretty interesting and presented in standard definition 1.78
X 1 and a lossy English 2.0 Dolby Digital Stereo audio track that
isn't bad in combination throughout. Subtitles are also on the disc
in English SDH. No extras.
All
in all, Gangland
Undercover
is a pretty fascinating look at what bike gang life is like. If you
are a fan of such things or maybe even read Falco's book then you may
want to check this series out.
