Top Evil Motor Vehicles

These are my favorite movies featuring a killer car, truck, or other motor vehicle:

Killdozer
Christine
The Car
Maximum Overdrive
Duel
The Hearse

What did I miss?

I bought a vampire motorcycle

The Ambulance

Nightmares (one of the segments has an evil truck)

Trucks (another version of maximum overdrive)

I don't know if DUEL is a real 'evil vehicle' film as its the driver thats the evil influence rather than the Truck - much like Joyride and Monsterman.


Honorable mentions (ie they son't really count)

Blood Car

The Cars That Ate Paris (just cos the Cars look so evil)

I debated whether to put Duel on the list, but as you never see the driver all the menace is coming from the truck.

I didn't know they did another version of Maximum Overdrive, was it more faithful to the original short story?


Interesting looking movies. I particularly like the looks of The Cars That Ate Paris:

Not seen Trucks - just know there was a TV version of the same story..

I wanted to see The Cars That Ate Paris for years because of that still and when I finally did I was very dissapointed. Its not that its a bad film but I expected something alot different.

Oh well, thanks for the warning.

Also thought of this Monty Python sketch:

It's not the greatest flick out there. Just your typical forgettable low budget 90s outing.
