The peaceful tranquility of a small Western town is disturbed when a murderous car wreaks havoc by viciously mowing down innocent victims. New sheriff, Wade Parent (James Brolin), may be the only one who can stop this menace in its tracks until he realizes that the driver of this indestructible vehicle is far more dangerous than any man it is driven by pure evil.

The Car is mainstream entertainment inspired by Spielberg’s Duel. Though it’s a bit formulaic and cringely awkward in one acrobatic scene, it’s surprisingly atmospheric and dynamic overall. Director Elliot Silverstein created a truly demonic fluidity around the superbly designed car and, in the dusty desert locations, he pushed it literally to an Oscar-worthy performance through great cinematography, quick cuts and refined sound. Generally well-done silliness.

Nice, undemanding car horror :-D I don't consider cars a terrifying horror villain, but I liked this. It’s well made, tense, with the right level of silliness and naivete… I’m satisfied.
