David Cronenberg's campy but earnest drag racing flick is one of the best racing movies you've never seen. David Cronenberg infamously made a car movie, Crash (1996), based on the 1973 J. G. Ballard novel of the same name, about people who get off on car accidents. Like, sexually. I say infamously because Crash got booed at Cannes, the Daily Mail tried to get it banned in the U.K., and Ted Turner refused to distribute it to theaters in the U.S. Too spicy! Turns out Cronenberg is actually a car guy.
