The Big Picture If you're in the mood for a movie that will make you throw up, all you need to do is dig into the sick works of David Cronenberg. For decades, Cronenberg has shocked audiences, mutilated bodies, and blown the heads off of characters in one dumbfounding horror classic after another. Everyone knows the heavy hitters like Scanners, Videodrome, and, of course, The Fly, but Cronenberg has much more to his name than that. Genre fans shouldn't miss his bizarre debut, Stereo .
'Fast Company' Is a Surprising Entry in David Cronenberg's Filmography Fast Company was released in theaters in 1979. By that point, Cronenberg had been working for a decade as an independent filmmaker, with his avant-garde, black and white, feature-length debut, Stereo, being released in 1969. He would never again go nearly as left-field as that movie, but that doesn't mean that his pictures went on to become all that commercial.
'Fast Company' Is a Vibe-Forward Racing Movie The story for Fast Company is about as simple as it gets. After a racer is let go by his sponsor and replaced by his rival, he decides that it's time to steal the car and race it himself. That's the basic synopsis, but this movie isn't about the story. Fast honestly just operates as a hangout movie.
This all goes down easily with a cool cast made up of B-movie icons. William Smith plays the lead, Lonnie Johnson, a character that feels most like Cliff Booth in the years to come with Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Western, kung-fu, and horror legend John Saxon is diabolical as the villain, Phil Adamson, who only has small potatoes to play with as a corporate dirtbag. Still, he makes the most of this opportunity.
