Looking for great, intense scenes of hopefully slo-motion car crashes.
March 6, 2015 10:22 AM   Subscribe

Doing a visual project for work. I'm looking for movies (or ads) that have great, highly visual car crashes. Slow motion glass shattering etc. Hopefully less action movie and more real life cars and actors. Fast and the Furious vehicles might be a bit over the top for what I am trying to do. But I'll take any and all suggestions. Anyone who has any favourite car crash scenes they want to mention, I'd love any and all advice which movies or commercials to look for.

One word: Ronin.
Car chase 1 (countryside/town). Car chase 2 (city).

Do crash safety tests count? Because there is a ton of those around

Yeah if I was looking for every conceivable angle of ultra slo mo car crashes, I'd turn to crash tests.

Have you considered the film Crash by David Cronenberg? It is a movie about car crashes. (And other things, but car crashes are key.)

Sorry, I totally read the question as "car chases" not "car crashes" earlier. There are still a few crashes in Ronin though.

Romeo is Bleeding has a great crash scene.

This New Zealand Anti-Speeding PSA is intense, but focuses on the calm before the storm. The storm part though, especially when contrasted with time-stopped calm section, is particularly intense.

I found the car crash scene from Adaptation to be quite jarring/realistic.
