The Chase is a 1946 movie, shot in black and white, directed by Arthur Ripley. The convoluted screenplay (adapted by Philip Yordan) is based on the Cornell Woolrich novel The Black Path of Fear.
This dream-like film noir is about Chuck Scott, a World War II vet now a penniless drifter tormented by bizarre dreams, who takes a job as driver to Eddie Roman (Cochran), a vicious gangster. Roman tests his new driver, Scott, by taking control of his car in the back seat, unbeknownst to the driver. Roman has an accelerator in the back seat of his car so that he can "take over" total control whenever he wants. This bizarre trick not only unnerves his new driver but Roman's right hand man, Gino (Lorre). Scott passes the test and gets the job. Things get tough for Scott when he falls in love with the gangsters wife, who has attempted to kill herself. They run off together to Cuba and a bizarre chase begins.
The Chase is a 1994 comedy-adventure movie starring Charlie Sheen and Kristy Swanson. Henry Rollins has a role in the film as a police officer. The movie features cameos from Ron Jeremy, both Anthony Kiedis and Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
The Chase is a 1966 American, drama film directed by Arthur Penn who afterwards went on to direct Bonnie and Clyde (1967).

From ShadowScreen Productions comes the second short film by Director Ryan Travis. The Chase is a high octane ride through the gritty urban landscape of Hamburg, Germany. The ride begins in a barren warehouse, where the Thief, played by Beau Clark delivers high end merchandise to his underworld client. The underworld client, or Boss, played by Kevin Scott Allen closely examines the sleek curves of the stolen BMW 1200 GS motorcycle and inspects for faults. The Boss' inquiry takes the audience back in time, through flashbacks, to reveal the death defying stunts carried out by the Thief to attain such a prized possession. With the sounds of shattering glass and whizzing bullets still languishing in his memory the Thief collects his cash and leaves, promising a superior product. Written by Weiner, Ari

Follows the plight of a young beauty as she flees from a mysterious pursuer through the halls of an abandoned building. As she is trapped at a dead end inside of a freight elevator, all hope seems lost until fate places two rescuers in the pursuer's path. A fight ensues, but who will win? And is our damsel in distress any safer if the other guys win? The Chase is the result of a self-imposed challenge by the filmmakers to produce a silent, yet compelling martial-arts driven story in an enclosed environment - a live-action Anime. Using the same location and scenario, a film version was shot by film purist Robert Banks for the purpose of comparison between style and medium. Written by Anonymous
