The DVD says:

When a mysterious comet passes close to Earth, machines everywhere suddenly take on murderous minds of their own. Soon, video games, cash machines, drawbridges, and steamrollers all go on a psychotic killing spree of global rebellion. But when the Dixie Boy Truck Stop is held hostage by a mob of homicidal 18-wheelers, human vengeance goes into overdrive. Who made who? And who will survive the final showdown of man vs. bloodthirsty machine? Emilio Estevez stars in this outrageous, twisted metal epic that marked the directing debut of horror master Stephen King and features a headbanging score of classic hits and original music by AC/DC.

Running Time: 98 mins

Region: 1

Ratio: 2.35:1

Sound: Dolby Digital 5.1

Special Features: Trailer, Stephen King Bio.

Certificate: R

My Opinion:

An enjoyable Stephen King flick with a stonking AC/DC soundtrack. Have you ever wondered what would happen if machines came to life? This movie will show you what could happen! This is a great Anchor Bay release with a 2.35:1 Widescreen presentation and Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack. The extras are unfortunately limited to the trailer and Stephen King Bio. Disappointing for an otherwise great DVD.

Bloody heart Rating:
