“Neo Tokyo is about to explode...” When
an insidious energy source grants psychic
powers to a lowly member of a biker
gang, he’s promptly made subject to army
experiments. Unable to be contained, he
seeks revenge on the society that doubted
him. Equal parts The Warriors and
Blade Runner, this anime landmark
saved the Japanese film industry.
