The Hi-Hats

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

CThe Hi-Hats are a gang from the 1979 film The Warriors and the video game based on the film.

This gang is only scene in the opening credits and at the conclave during the film. In the game, however, they are featured in two levels. In Writer's Block it is revelaed their turf is SoHo and that they are led by an extremely obese individual with a stutter who goes by the name Chatterbox(ironic, since the Hi-Hats pattern themselves after mimes). In SoHo, they hold a writer's competition to find the best grafitti artist in New York City, this is a setup, however to eliminate other gangs. The Warriors escape to Chatterbox's art gallery which they trash. Afterwards, the Hi-Hats come to Coney Island to take revenge on the Warriors. After a prolonged battle, the Warriors kill Chatterbox and his invading soldiers.
