| Brief Description: | This 1975 Japanese action-suspense classic was the inspiration for the American hit film Speed. A madman (Ken Takakura) plants a bomb on a train and threatens to blow it up unless his demands are met. While the police try to track down the person responsible, it's up to the heroic train conductor (Sonny Chiba, The Streetfigher) to keep the passengers calm and to find the bomb and disarm it. This landmark film keeps the excitement level on high and never lets up throughout its running time. With Kei Yamamoto and Ken Utsui. In Japanese with English subtitles. |
