- Richard9 listopada 2025This is the cinematic equivalent of a fever dream in a truck stop. Stephen King, riding high on fame and other substances, decided to direct his own short story (Trucks) and turn it into a full blown movie. The result? A glorious mess of killer machines, AC/DC riffs and Emilio Estevez trying to act his way out of a vending machine apocalypse. The plot is simple: Earth passes through the tail of a rogue comet and suddenly all machines come to life and start murdering people. Lawnmowers, arcade cabinets and most famously, a demonic semi truck with a Green Goblin face. It’s chaos. Glorious, greasy chaos. King himself later admitted he was “coked out of his mind” during production and it shows. The tone swings wildly between horror, slapstick and accidental comedy. The pacing is erratic, the dialogue is bonkers and the direction? Let’s just say it’s enthusiastic. The cast does their best, Estevez is stoic, Yeardley Smith screams a lot and Pat Hingle looks like he wandered in from a Tennessee Williams play. The soundtrack? Pure AC/DC, blasting like it’s trying to drown out the script. This was King’s first and last time in the director’s chair. The production was reportedly a nightmare, with injuries, technical failures and a crew that probably aged five years in five weeks. It’s a cult classic now, but back then? Critics roasted it like a malfunctioning toaster. Still, it’s a must watch. Not because it’s good, but because it’s King unfiltered. A cinematic car crash you can’t look away from. And honestly? That truck face is iconic.
- Zokkiie11 sierpnia 2026This is such a bizarre movie, but that's also where most of the fun is. The idea of trucks suddenly becoming murderous and going after people is great, and there are some really cool shots and practical effects when the trucks go on the rampage. AC/DC doing the soundtrack is also a pretty perfect fit. Emilio Estevez is fun enough too, even if the acting across the board is pretty hit or miss. The problem is that the movie is just a mess. The dialogue is often ridiculous, the characters aren't particularly interesting, and the whole thing feels like it was made up as they went along. Stephen King directing it himself definitely didn't help. Still, there's enough dumb, chaotic fun here to make it worth watching, especially if you're into weird 80s horror.
- Jeffery Brookshire7 września 2025Nostalgic 80s Steven King. Solid stuff, haha.
