Load of rubbish!!
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Just discovered this "evil vehicle" TV movie. And it's a very good surprise to me. Well, some scenes are non-understandable because of logicals lacks (why Laura didn't call the police the second time she seen "Charger" closed to the school, for example) and during final pursuit, the damaged "Charger" became less damaged in few shots. In same time, the slow parts of this pursuit with melancholic music is kind of ballet without any continuity with the rest. Also, editing would be re-arranged a bit to be more clear but hey, for a TV movie, it's pretty nice and dark story. Look-like "The Car" but it's not the same plot. "Duel" seems more closer than the Elliot Silverstein movie.
I like this movie--loved it as a kid, and would beg my mother to watch it with me. I also remember watching it in the hotel lobby when we had to move somewhere when i was nine or ten years old. Gosh, i hope I can find it--do you guys and gals out there get into the mood of watching old movies you haven't seen in a long time? That's me-- i will watch any movie that comes to mind that I loved watching when I was a little kid... I am a big movie collector, but ironically, i don't like watching much TV, weird huh? So now i tried to post this message and i have to go to ten lines thats weird because the last post i did didn't have ten lines and it posted, so i guess here we go with the tenth line here!
'Horrible' is an apt description of this bomb of a movie. (Actually, it's insulting to all other movies, just to call it a "movie"!) I would be embarrassed to have my name associated with this waste of time -- it's nothing but a ridiculous plot, with bad acting and ludicrous scenarios. A driver-less car? Flying off of cliffs, only to return to torment (us the viewers, I presume?). No other cars on the road? ANYWHERE?! A 12-year-old kidnap victim is magically a stunt person with acrobatic skills? PLEASE!!! And in case you're waiting for an explanation of the 'plot' in this drivel, give up. It never happens.If this waste of time shows up on a channel in your area, you'll have the perfect reason for throwing out your television.
This movie is a take off of "Duel", "Christine", "The Wraith" and any other movie featuring people being chased by vehicles. The over use of slow motion, the pathetic ending and all of the awful parts in between which make no sense (for instance, the car coming back when it finally lost the school bus and when the girl escaped from the car and got back to the bus when all the car driver had to do was brake or something to get away from the bus) and of course the mystery of the car driver (unless of course it was the car that killed and raped the schoolgirls :) ) make this film not worth seeing. Try any of the movies I mentioned above instead they would make for much better entertainment that this rubbish.
