#Video #Japan #1% #Gang - This is a very interesting documentary that our friends at One World Studios are distributing. One World Studios are the good folks that made the excellent motorcycle documentaries like "Choppertown - The Sinners", "The Harbortown Bobber" and "Brittown". In other words, they have good taste in videos.

They have released the distribution of a documentary on the legendary Japanese Bosozoku motorcycle gangs, a self-styled 1%er gang of violent bikers. The Japanese word Bosozoku can be broken down into "Violent" "Speed" "Tribe". These extreme violent gangs, have a samurai and kamikaze culture, and it shows.

The Japanese video documentary (in English subtitles) shows the extreme lengths these gangs go to, both on their on members and towards anyone else. Death means nothing to them...........

A review of the cult classical movie Quadrophenia, a movie based on the popualr rock opera of The Who (they produced the movie). It's not a musical, but there's a lot of music from that era.

It's a real biker movie, but not the kind you expect. There's a lot of motorcycle and scooter riding going on in the movie, since it's a struggle between the Mods and the Rockers. In this epic movie, you'll see front nudity (but all male), a lot of super customized scooters, motorcycles, a lot of fighting and drugs.

This is a highly recommended movie if you've never seen it before. It really shows the way things were in the mid-60's in the UK, the clash between two cultures, and the way the young men and women were trying to find their way.

A review of the post-apocalyptic sci-fi/vampire movie Priest. There's a lot of motorcycle riding around this movie, most of them are turbine equipped motorcycles.

The movie itself, though a bit Blade meets High Noon, is quite good and enjoyable.

Review of the movie entitled "Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann", an honest-to-God Biker/Sci-Fi/Western movie. It's original, and reasonably good.

Image you are sent back into time, to the good old Western days, and all you have is your motocross motorcycle. That'll be fun...

All the usual suspects for a Western movie are there...

Review of the "biker" movie entitled "The Silencer". A B-movie about a women who rides her Harley motorcycle catching and killing men who make sex slaves, all the while she sheds her clothes at the drop of a hat.

The plot is reasonable, a bit far fetched, but the script itself is very bad, and the movie director should take up another job.

Born To Ride is billed as a biker movie "a la" Easy Rider. Released in 2011, this 90 minutes long movie centers around two motorcycle riders heading for Sturgis but getting themselves in a lot of trouble.

The flick isn't bad, but it's not great either. It's a movie you'll want to see on a rainy Sunday when there's no football on the TV.

An overview of the DVD documentary from the Smithsonian Networks called "America Wild And Wacky: Sturgis".

A look at Sturgis 2007 motorcycle rally. Good overview, specially for people who have never been.

A review of the documentary "Hog Heaven: River Run Wild" - the Laughlin annual event for motorcycles.

They should be showing this DVD at film school.... on how NOT to make a documentary. If you look at it without any sound (highly recommended), you would not know where this was filmed.

A review of the 1984 Sci-Fi biker movie "City Limits" starring James Earl Jones and Kim Cattrall. Despite the names, it's still a B-movie, but not a bad one.

There are a lot of motorcycles in this movie, since it's two teenage motorcycle gangs that square off against each other and a third party using Mad Max style motorcycles.

A review of the History Channel DVD documentary "Hog Heaven: The Story Of The Harley-Davidson Empire". It's in fact two documentary, since there's an hour and 30 minutes bonus feature called Modern Marvels.

This is a very interesting documentary! High quality, well researched, and full of exceptional motorcycles, not only historical ones, but also modern day technology marvels (like Jay Leno's turbine motorcycle, the MT Y2K).

A high recommended DVD. No matter how much you already know about motorcycles, you'll learn something here.
