Synopsis

Stephen King has had dozens of his horror stories adapted for film and television, but this is the only movie he has directed so far. Emilio Estevez is among a group of truck stop denizens terrorized by homicidal, driverless 18-wheelers and other machines gone mad. "We got the maniac cigarette machine, the attack diesel-pump, the leapin' electric carving knife, video game electrocutions, a little kid on his bike gettin'' Aunt Jemima-ed by a steamroller, Coke-can brain surgery, various forms of deranged lawn-care equipment, exploding 18-wheeler aliens and, of course, Pat Hingle running around shooting off a bazooka he happens to keep in the basement" (Joe Bob Briggs, Joe Bob Goes Back to the Drive-In). Music by AC/DC. Stephen King---USA---1986---98 mins.
