Black Speeding

About This Movie

Black Speeding is a gritty dive into the world of crime and obsession, told through the lens of a motorcycle cop, Takuya Tsuda. The film has this raw, almost chaotic energy - the sound of revving engines and the pulse of the city create a visceral atmosphere. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it adds to that sense of urgency as Takuya unravels the connection between the tragic accident and the Sakamoto Motorcycle Club. The performances carry a weight that's hard to ignore, especially as Takuya grapples with his own demons. This film stands out for its practical effects and the authentic depiction of motorcycle culture in the 60s - not the polished Hollywood take, but something more real, more urgent.

Black Speeding has seen limited format releases over the years, with initial screenings mostly in 16mm and a few later on VHS. Its scarcity adds to its allure among collectors, as it’s hard to find in good condition. Given the unique blend of crime and motorcycle culture, this film garners interest for those who appreciate lesser-known gems from the 1960s.
