Thats fucking cool Jim. Did he make a shitload of money off the movie rights? I was friends with a writer named Gary Bradner who wrote the book that would eventually be made into probably the very best werewolf movie of all time, The Howling. I vividly remember Gary saying they offered him a ridiculous amount of money for the movie/screenplay rights to the novel, far more than he ever made publishing. How close was the movie to your dads novel? What was the name of the book, and did it do well?
Always loved this Movie and it was so underrated as an epic car chase movie , Not to mention all the memories it brings back of my 69 440 Charger , it too died in a crash ... ahhh the teenage years ... Cheers for the Share
I have seen this movie a hundred times,and could see it again. The 66 impala reminds me of my dads 65. Same color. And the 69 charger is one of my favorites. Well done!
A fun but seriously underrated movie. One of my favorite movies regardless of genre. By far the best chace movie. Being s Mopar fan, that 69 Charger 440 is to 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I have a restored '69 Dodge Charger 4-Speed 383. My father ordered it and bought it new in '68. You can see the '69 440 briefly. Love the movie. Love Fu Manchu.
@@DigbyOdel-et3xx Thank you. For $500 more he could have ordered it with the Hemi. People were blowing those engines up street racing so it didn't come with a warranty. That sucks. The car would be worth a hell of a lot more.
@ShadesOClarity The Hemi would be cool. But the 383 cu in. was a fine mule... The fact that you imo are fortunate to own one of my favorite Mopars is good enough for me. After the Dodge Viper, the Late 60's- early 70's Charger is my next favorite followed by the Plymouth Barracuda.😎👍
@@DigbyOdel-et3xx I like them all. Especially Yellow Superbees, Panther Pink Challengers, Vitamin C Orange Dart Swingers, everything. Mopar forever! I liked the Viper as well.
@ShadesOClarity I agree. I like all those classic Mopars too. I get a kick out of Vanguard Auto Sales when. They put videos of the cars they sell. All the Mopars they make videos of make me think, "If only I had the money to buy." 😂
I don't know if many of you are aware of it, but the helicopter piloting in this movie, specifically the full nutso balls the size of the population of china low altitude under real power lines high speed chase and then fucking full speed cornering inches off the deck shot at approximately 3:17 in this video is a thing of legends in the stunt production world. I'm unable to explain or convey just how utterly fearless and insanely difficult what you see here was to try, let alone pull off (most veterans, even some of the Nam elite who were considered the best, said a move at this height and speed was not possible under any circumstances). This stunt went unchallenged for years, until the scene in Terminator 2 at the end of the movie when, filmed live in one take, the new 'record' was set when that chopper pilot flew that bird at 80+ knots UNDER the motherfucking overpass chasing the hero's car toward the metal foundry. Then, (and as of now, there might be others I'm not aware of!) even crazier 'impossible' helicopter flying surpassing this I saw recently in the low budget comedy film 'Rat Race' (the scene at the beginning of the movie when the blonde chopper pilot discovers her fiance in the Doughboy pool in their backyard with another bimbo and chases him through the desert with her helicopter). More balls of steel aviation mind blowyness . . .
If they think it's two dangerous, they used miniatures, or optical illusions in Hollywood back in the day. Now it's called CGI (computer generated imaging) but if it's a stunt pilot, hell thats impressive.
I've seen vision of insane chopper flying on outback cattle stations here in Australia. The big cattle stations used chopper musterers, who are airborne cowboys and some of the low level stuff they do is skilled but mad and on private property.
That helicopter pilot was hot doggin'. o_O Stuntmen, test pilots, etc were seriously badass back the day. When you'll risk your life to get the shot, that's dedication. These days a bandaid usage on set requires a team of lawyers. ;).
Fokin' awesome!!!!! Egill, you've done an awesome job by putting this video together. Excellent. As if it were the original soundtrack to the move :-) Thank you so much for sharing.
got the movie poster in the barn, along with Vanishing Point (there are no heros), Citizens Band, Race with the Devil, Death Race 2000, Rollerball (the original of course), a Stones ’72 American tour and a really cool Clockwork Orange poster (just a white bust of Beethoven with one eye in black eyeliner and long eyelashes on an orange background) and 2 huge Easy Rider photo posters...gives the barn a nice 70’s atmosphere...
I saw Fu manchu on my 18th at Rock City back in the 90's and to this day i love there music, my favorite film of all time too, peter fonder plays such a cool role in this flic - all in all this makes for f#c:in awesome blend of everything i like! DRIVE
You're not wrong though. From Wikipedia: "Film developers thought the Dodge Charger was actually bright yellow and so "corrected" the film negatives to eliminate the greenish tint on the car. In fact, the entire movie in theaters, on TV, and on VHS was originally very warm toned. The color was more correct in the 2005 DVD release (and later Blu-ray releases) and the Dodge Charger became the correct lime green color. "
Wow, that's good stuff. The editing is clean and not too busy and the song fits perfectly. I like your fade out too. Somebody in Fu Manchu needs to know this is out there cause they would completely dig it.
In tha heat of tha night, I hear the howl honey sneaking around ya door In tha heat of tha night I hear my heart beating heavy, telling me I gotta MOOOOOOORRRRREEEE🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
Unreal song and video. Love how muscle cars had huge engines, with drum brakes and no seatbelts. Once went for a thrash in a mate's original Firebird convertible... lots of fun but aged ten years. Mad.
there a different cars in the movie. first scene is a 69 charger with the splitted front in the 1st collisiondriving scenes theres a 68 with black front and round rear glasses.
How cool. My dad Richard Unekis wrote the book that this movie was based on when I was 3 in 1963. Nice job Fu Manchu !!!

Wow that's badass man! One of my favorite 70s action flicks 😊
What book
That fuckin cool bro! Rock on! 🤘
COOL ! great movie and video !

Cheers for the Share
stoner rock + 70's car action movies = EPIC WIN!
Fu sure !
The takeaway: Crime don't pay, kids. But if you insist, commit it in a lime green 1969 Dodge Charger.
a new generation needs to be turned onto Dirty Mary Crazy Larry.
Well pal, you got it, watched Two-Lane Blacktop, Vanishing Point, this is next on the list :)
@@rhyskandoll9472" Bullit " would be the #1 H. P. chase movie .
I have seen this movie a hundred times,and could see it again. The 66 impala reminds me of my dads 65. Same color. And the 69 charger is one of my favorites. Well done!
seen this movie when it came out ! Man how has time flown by !
A fun but seriously underrated movie. One of my favorite movies regardless of genre. By far the best chace movie.

R.I.P. Peter Fonda (February 23, 1940 - August 16, 2019) Legend!!
Right on Brotha. Know fer shur I’ve sent you this one over the years. Combines 3 of my favorite things.
Peter Fonda Died On The Exact Day As ELVIS PRESLEY!
Here's One More For You: August 16 Is Also The Birthday Of MADONNA!!
@@richardkaltenbach3961🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Still one of the coolest fan videos ever, thanks man. You nailed it. Peace
Love how you can partly hear the engine of the car while the song is playing. Perfect combination of a great film and a great band.
I think this is the best version of the song that exists. The roar of the engine, the peel outs, sirens and laughs complete the song in a weird way.
Right!!! V8 singing adds so much to the song
Excellent video!!! Great tune. Fu Manchu delivers.
I have a restored '69 Dodge Charger 4-Speed 383. My father ordered it and bought it new in '68. You can see the '69 440 briefly. Love the movie. Love Fu Manchu.
You are one lucky person to have one of the most bad ass looking cars ever made.. Mopar forever 😎👍

I just went to watch that scene from Rat Race, a lot of effort for a movie that seems a bit too silly to watch in full.
@@seansnyder8594: Both in this movie and in T2 they actually flew the chopper
The helicopter piloting in this movie was outstanding. His rotor blades came so close to power lines, poles and trees.
Wow... I saw this movie on a Double Feature back in the 70s at the Drive In. The 2nd movie was Eat My Dust with Ron Howard....ahhh memories...
Finally set free from the week's endless cycle of repetition. I love Fu Manchu
My top end is UNLIMITED
That helicopter pilot was hot doggin'. o_O
Stuntmen, test pilots, etc were seriously badass back the day. When you'll risk your life to get the shot, that's dedication. These days a bandaid usage on set requires a team of lawyers. ;).
one of the stuntmen for Mad Max was told not to eat before a particular take because it was likely he would need major surgery after it!
I blame computers, CGI has replaced reality. When one knows anything about physics, can't watch make believe.
Who was the helicopter pilot?
King Of The Road has always been my favorite Fu Manchu album and this movie has always been one my favorites. Bravo you have created a great video.
this mashup is a good realization of my fantasy thoughts in my head daily.
I have watched this video many times. Whenever I play the King of the Road album and this track comes on I can still hear the screeching tires etc.
I hate watching Hollywood destroying these beautiful cars.
That charger got me hooked to cars back in the 70s, Fu Manchu kicks ass!!!!
It"s a '69.
Epic win for all of it!!! Love it
Very good show
That chopper piloting is sick!
Great Movie!!
Me and my cousin saw this movie at the neighborhood theater boy those were the days.
'There she is' .. Now let's Go !
OUTSTANDING..!!👍😎
awesome thing was done here
My Hero, and his dream car. "There she is, this eye adoring as his heart skips a beat
.".....
Great video! Superbly put together, great band too. Top work!
F'ing A, dude. Outstanding job.
Fokin' awesome!!!!! Egill, you've done an awesome job by putting this video together. Excellent. As if it were the original soundtrack to the move :-) Thank you so much for sharing.
Love this band! Can't beat that fuzzy sound get my headphones on go out on the bike always sorts my head out.
I have to see them next time in portland

Good movie 🎥😊
Super bon films que j’adore et qui me fait lever de mon siège! WOW! À voir!
They sound kind of like Tygers of Pan Tang! Also, sweet footage from a badass film featuring a super badass car!
The way the hood smashed in after 1:45 probably made the Charger more aerodynamic. LOL!
Dirty Mary and Crazy Larry! The Best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great movie great band
what car....what song.....wonderfull my god
It's a 1969 Dodge Charger R/T 440. However, in one scene you can see the non-split grille which was a '68. The song is "Drive" by Fu Manchu.
I love this movie :)
This 69 Charger: The King Of The Road, EVER!
MOPAR POWER!!!
@@buddahGump
Mopar forever.
Obtw Fcuk Stellantis.. Frenchy Italian bull💩 destroying one of the most notable car brands ever.
excellent!
Great work my man! Fitted the music perfectly.
Thank you! This is the best video ever!!!!
good spotting
dude it goes perfect with the video!!!
Great movie, great band, great song, all win!
wouldf like to live in these times
AWSOME!! ESPECIALLY WITH CAPS & EXCLAMATION MARKS!"!!
grrrrrreat edit!!! thanx ;)
Freaking awesome
That was rad as hell.
Great Job, this rules!
Good movie

Really. Well done.
I love the way the grill changes mid car chance
Kick ass video. :)
Look out for that train!!.... I swore that charger was yellow when I first seen that movie. I remember it slamming into the train and it being yellow.
You're not wrong though. From Wikipedia: "Film developers thought the Dodge Charger was actually bright yellow and so "corrected" the film negatives to eliminate the greenish tint on the car. In fact, the entire movie in theaters, on TV, and on VHS was originally very warm toned. The color was more correct in the 2005 DVD release (and later Blu-ray releases) and the Dodge Charger became the correct lime green color. "
I saw this on late night TV in the early 70's. (Edited version)
My ol lady says i cannot listen to this in my challenger anymore!
Wow, that's good stuff. The editing is clean and not too busy and the song fits perfectly. I like your fade out too. Somebody in Fu Manchu needs to know this is out there cause they would completely dig it.
Honestly my first time seeing....makes me think of family . My Moms first car was a superbee
Damn good mix man, made my day! Cheers! -B)
That was the year I was born. And my dad had this same car, I bet he drove like that too..
The cops face.. when he saw the charger was priceless..🤣🤣🤣🤘🤘
Still one of the best vids on TH-cam.
No doubt! Peace
Kick-ass vid!
Love it when the cops smiles as they come flying out of the trees.
In tha heat of tha night, I hear the howl honey sneaking around ya door
In tha heat of tha night I hear my heart beating heavy, telling me I gotta MOOOOOOORRRRREEEE🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
Buenos película las tima que no la pongan completa. 👍👍👍👍👍
Seeing them hit the train would've been a wild ending, like the movie.
it's the music that do's it. this better than most or a whole lot of what's there.
Every body seems to forget that there was a bad ass chevy in the first part of these movie too did a ramp jump and a bridge jump too
Awesome clip. That chase is epic, the sound track and editing is tight. and you didn't spoil it for those who aren't in the know. Great job.
Check out Goat Leaf video Monkeys Rats and King's, they used this footage too. Great band from Rotherham UK.
@ogdeckape I don't know man. There's Hell On Wheels to consider (with Mad Max clips) and also the song 34 by Karma To Burn (with clips from Bullitt)
Clown to Franklin...Clown 2 Franklin!!!
i like this ending!
its like brushing big foots back and eating pop rocks at the same time
Unreal song and video. Love how muscle cars had huge engines, with drum brakes and no seatbelts. Once went for a thrash in a mate's original Firebird convertible... lots of fun but aged ten years. Mad.
WRONG , Chrysler products had seat. belts and disc brakes in the mid - sixties .
right after you see the tail lights when the Charger hits the COP and drives away the grill is a 68. Guessing the used a 68 just for that hit :P
Pourquoi n’ai-je pas connus ce groupe plus tôt ? Pôvre de moi...
Blue Chevy? Sheeeet I can find ten if those in the Time it takes me to pick my nose
I was fortunate enough to be rebellious in my youth without serious consequences. :) I tested it. Hard. LOL!
Fu Manchu rocks it!
cool video footage for this song. couldn't be better.
Wow!! Better than the original movie with Fu Manchu as soundtrack!!! Great work!!
there a different cars in the movie. first scene is a 69 charger with the splitted front in the 1st collisiondriving scenes theres a 68 with black front and round rear glasses.
@TheTxBandit
they get killed by a train??? i need this movie...right now!
that fender!!
I'm crushed just lookin at it!!!
Great stuff! When stunt driving was real, done by drivers not computers
@TheTxBandit por que revelar el final?
no oportunidad por una sequela jaja ;D
Best part is them speeding off at the end
Perfect combination!
No train?
