Notes
  • Estimated running time: 01:26:00.
  • Alternate titles: Black mark superexpress; Black super express train.
  • Audie Bock notes that [this is the] "last in a series of 'Kuro' films starring Tamiya in action-spy-big-business situations; Masumura's 29th film. He began the series in 1962 with Kuro no tesuto kā (Black Mark Test Car), also based on a best-selling Kajiyama novel. The ten 'Kuro' sequels (five per year), some based on the works of different authors and some original scripts, were directed by various Daiei directors. As the end of a hastily fashioned series, Kuro no chōtokkyū has a predictable facile quality."
