Just got out of jail for vehicular man slauter and this movie realy relates to me.I think Steaven King got it just right it realy makes you want to get in your Mack Truck and run some people over so if you feel the need to see some sensless vilence grab this movie and go crazzy.

I know some people who are HUGE car fans, but I'm not that kind of guy. Nor do I really care that much for AC/DC. This was an ok film. I just don't know why cars would react like that when a meteor falls to earth. It definetely doesn't react like Creepshow does. 4 and a half stars.

This 1986 Stephen King film (he directed the movie and wrote the screenplay) is possibly his worst film. The cheesy 80's is written all over it and it's not the mature work of Stephen King, who has come up with scarier material than this. Stars Emilio Estevez as the leader of a group of truck stop diner who have to band together to defeat possessed trucks. A comet that passed through the skies left an eerie green cloud over the town and has made it possible for human's inventions, electronic or otherwise, to rebel against humans. Soon, all the trucks come to life and drive themselves, killing off their drivers. This film is really nothing exciting or even scary. Stephen King has created more frightening horror films. Even if he was trying to go for a science fiction type of horror genre, it did'nt work. Maybe because it was the 80's and this is just one bad apple in the bunch.
Yeardley Smith, best known as the voice of Lisa Simpson from The Simpsons is part of the cast. It's refreshing to see her in person and in movies outside from the cartoons. She was also in the short lived early 90's series "Herman's Head". This is definately not Emilio Estevez's best work. About a year earlier, he had performed in The Breakfast Club in which he did a much better job. He would do the same later in the 90's with the Mighty Ducks movies. The trucks are funny to look at and the humans being killed by them is not as frightening as it should be. Especially comedic is the truck with the Green Goblin head on it. This movie, which is a sort of camp classic, is more enjoyable if it does'tn take itself seriously. This movie DOES try to be serious horror. The ending implies that the survivors made it possible for the aliens in the green cloud to be defeated and it is supposed to be a sort of serious film about survival. But it's not really a good film for that type of plot. I feel this movie would be better to look at in Mystery Science Theatre 3000 where they showcase old camp, bad movies with ad lib jokes. Then maybe this movie would be better to look at. But if you're into the 80's, Stephen King (no matter what he does) and Emilio Estevez, this is the film for you. Thank God it' not well remembered.

This movie rocks! Terrible acting, poor use of fake blood, steam rollers, a soda machine that I would love outside my place of business, the psycho music when a machine is about to kill someone, bible salesman gets his sh@* ruined, random sex scene that has nothing to do with the plot, and senceless destruction of cars, trucks, power tools, and buildings. This movie serves up 31 flavors of whoop a** with a side of good old fashioned beatdown. This movie would have kicked a** even if Men at Work did the sound track but just to add even more flavor to side of beatdown, the producers threw in a sound track by AC/DC.
Besides Dawn of the Dead this movie is one of the best ones out there!!

This 1986 movie isn't the greatest (and the picture quality sucks), but it has its charm. It has the distinction of being the only movie Stephen King directed (he found directing to be such a horrible job that he vowed never to do it again). You've got Emelio Estevez in the lead role. None of the acting is spectacular and the story (written for the screen by King) leaves a little to be desired, but in the end, it is a good film. Or at least one I enjoy.
