1976 • Japan • Directed by Kinji Fukasaku

Takashi, an expert bank-robber, plans to pull off the biggest heist of his career, stealing 300 million yen before fleeing to Brazil. However, when the robbery goes awry, Takashi finds himself alone and his getaway foiled. Trailed by the police, his lover, his partner-in-crime’s brother, and countless others, Takashi becomes the target of a manhunt filled with twists, double-crosses and explosive action.

From WOLVES, PIGS AND MEN and BATTLES WITHOUT HONOR AND HUMANITY director Kinji Fukasaku, VIOLENT PANIC: THE BIG CRASH is a “cult film spectacle that pulls out all the stops” (Make Mine Criterion). Fast-paced, unrelenting, and featuring a conclusion that ranks among the most legendary car chases in film, VIOLENT PANIC: THE BIG CRASH is one of the most action-packed masterpieces of Fukasaku’s career.
