Editorial Reviews

A murderous car wreaks havoc on a small Western town in this thriller that has gone on to achieve a small degree of cult status in spite of its own silliness. After a pair of bikers and a horn-playing hitchhiker are viciously mowed down, local police realize they have a motoring maniac on their hands. In a show of boldness, the mysterious black automobile kills the sheriff (John Marley) on the town's main street, leaving the post to officer Wade Parent (James Brolin). A supernatural element enters the picture when the car motors through a parade practice, but refuses to enter the hallowed ground of a cemetery. The cops chase the car through the desert, but it takes out several squad cars and disappears after injuring Wade. Things take a personal turn when the car eliminates Wade's girlfriend Lauren (Kathleen Lloyd) in a shocking sequence. Gathering his remaining officers, Wade concocts a plan to stop the horsepower-laden psychopath. ~ Patrick Legare, All Movie Guide All Movie Guide

April 10, 2003: I too, don't care what critics have or had to say about this movie, I love it. Like the headline says I saw this movie half a dozen times in the theatre as a teenager when it came out,loved it then and still do. There is just something about this movie that has stuck with me,I guess you just have to see it for yourself.

March 11, 2003: I don't care how cheesy other people say this film is I love it, ok it may have no storyline but it is a brilliant film. A desert, New Mexico, people, a big black sedan then dead people, it's amazing! And the honking of the horn after every kill is brilliant. Watch this film!
