Customer Reviews of Fast Company (2-Disc Limited Edition)
Review for "Crimes of the Future' "Crimes of the Future" is the type of postmodernist "artsy" flick which considers meaningless ramblings, actions which could be cryptic messages disguised as purposeless events, and androgynous characters behind which a soundtrack of hoots, whistles, rustling, and static plays with interceptions of complete silence. This is degenerate art at its zenith and extremely surprising as coming from the same director who did "Scanners," "Videodrome," and "Nightbreed."
Fast Company...Finally
Fast Company (1979) is truly great B-cinema despite the tendencies of scholastic indifference. Whether its lack of reception has been due to lack of availability, its straight-to-Beta stigma or, most probable, an audience's disregard for anything differing from the Cronenbergian macabre is open for debate. What is certain is that this effort, his first with a budget exceeding the million-dollar mark, was a precursor to the personal trajectory of The Brood (1979).

>Divorce proceedings underway, David changed focus to his consuming passion of the automobile. The final product was a decent drag strip movie, "a good B-Movie" he admits. The good versus evil tension included in most racing films is combined with some point of view shots from the car racers proper, in itself, well worth the price of the rental. Spending most of the film arguing with John Saxon, his greasy sponsor from Fast Company Motor Oil, William Smith plays Lonnie 'Lucky Man' Johnson, whose iconic status as drag strip guru is tested race after race. His real stroke of luck however comes through his onscreen squeeze, November Playmate 1969 Claudia Jennings. This marked consecutive attempts at casting notables from the adult industry.
