About this event
Do YOU have the stamina for a Crank 1 + 2 Double Feature ? Get a jolt of adrenaline with these back-to-back, wildly off-the-rails actioners! Filmed largely on rollerblades by co-directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, and starring Jason Statham in back-to-back career best performances as contract killer and bonafide "sh*t magnet", Chev Chelios, the CRANK duology asks the question "what if you remade SPEED, but instead of a bus, it was a guy?" These are movies that must be seen to be believed, and even once you've seen them, you'll likely still be in disbelief...
