Sorry, this movie sucks
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
This one has good and bad points. The climax and ending were the bad points. It's as if they really didn't know how to end it so they threw in the desert and helicopter stuff... followed by the hospital scene.The good to it is that most of it is fairly interesting - all the middle stuff going on is sorta thrilling. The gas station scene is simply weird. I thought for a minute she was trying to break into a wall safe to try to find coins to use the phone, then I realized it was to turn on the gas pump. lol.This would have a really good movie but the ending - when it became daylight in the desert and then the hospital scene was a bad way to end an otherwise decent made for TV thriller.5/10
I saw this movie when I was a kid, and still remember it. The suspense in the movie was off the charts. It was on late at night and kept me up even after it was over. You really had no idea what was going to happen next. Once you started watching it you definitely could not stop. The character that used the voice box made it even scarier. Valerie Harper was awesome, and definitely showed that she can do more than comedy. I would love to see the movie again. Hopefully it will come back on, or there is a way to find it on video. For a made for TV movie I must say it was even better than some that I have seen at the movies. Back than they had to have good stories, and great actors since they couldn't rely on big budget special effects.
After a long search I finally located a copy of "Night Terror" starring Valerie Harper. According to the box, it was issued on home video back in 1990.Not your typical cheesy 1970's "made-for-T.V." movie. It is very well directed, the acting holds up and is very believable and suspenseful. A great "midnight movie" thriller if you're lucky enough to find a copy!
I saw this movie years ago on a late night t.v. movie and haven't forgotten it... It kept me on the edge of the couch and couldn't get to sleep for hours... Not that it was terribly a good movie... just one of those that you remember for a long long time. If anyone out there knows where I can get a copy of this I would appreciate the info. It's about a woman that is being chased in a car and always running into dead ends, or out of gas or anything else that can possibly go wrong. I can't quite remember why she is chased.. just how awful it was.
