Maximum overdrive 1986 Stephen king screenplay
Get ready for the ultimate battle of man vs. bloodthirsty machine in this terrifying Stephen King classic! For three horrifying, the Earth passes through the tail of a mysterious comet. The skies glow an eerie green as humanity waits to see what the fallout will be. But what they imagine is nothing like the nightmare they find - the comet's magnetic fields cause all the machines on Earth to suddenly come to life and terrorize their human creators in a horrific killing spree. Now, it's up to a small group of people trapped in a desolate truck stop to defeat the killer machines - or be killed by them.
Stephen King's work brings chills to my skin. The Truck with the gremlin face haunted my dreams when i was younger. This R rated movie has some cheesy special effects, but more than makes up for it in imagination. The AC DC soundtrack also gives a hint to the time the movie was made, and fits well. subtle little things make this movie scarier than i thought it would be, like the killer ice cream truck, RUN FROM THOSE CHIMES!
Well i have to give it 4 out of 5 tankards because the screenplay could have been better given the short story. Dialog and acting fell short.
