Packard Walsh and his motorized gang control and terrorize an Arizona desert town where they force drivers to drag-race so they can ‘win’ their vehicles. After Walsh beats the decent teenager Jamie Hankins to death after finding him with his girlfriend, a mysterious power creates Jake Kesey, an extremely cool motor-biker who has a car which is invincible. Jake befriends Jamie’s girlfriend Keri Johnson, takes Jamie’s sweet brother Bill under his wing and manages what Sheriff Loomis couldn’t; eliminate Packard’s criminal gang the hard way.

This B-grade direct-to-video film is lazily put together in terms of the screenplay, with its only point of interest being the cast - featuring the renowned Charlie Sheen and Sherilyn Fenn. The only attraction of The Wraith may lie in its portrayal of automotive design and car chases, which might appeal to avid car enthusiasts, although even those are filmed in an exceptionally stereotypical manner. Otherwise, it's a complete waste of time - overall impression: 15%.
