Maximum Overdrive (1986.)
O filmu:
Maximum Overdrive is a 1986 fantasy horror film, written and directed by novelist Stephen King. The screenplay was inspired by and loosely based on King's short story, Trucks, which was included in King's first collection of short stories, Night Shift. Maximum Overdrive is Stephen King's first and only directorial effort, though dozens of films have been based on King's novels. The film contained black humor elements and a generally camp tone, which contrasts with King's sombre subject matter in books. The neophyte director was nominated for the title of "Worst Director" by the Golden Raspberry Awards in 1987. King himself described the film as a "moron movie" and stated his intention to never direct again soon after. In a 2002 interview with Tony Magistrale for the novel Hollywood's Stephen King, King stated that he was "coked out of my mind all through its production, and I really didn't know what I was doing." In spite of this, King stated in the same interview that he "learned a lot from the experience," and would "like to try directing again sometime." However, for the same reasons the film is viewed by some as a form of comedy horror and the film has retained a cult following. In 1988, Maximum Overdrive was nominated for "Best Film" at The International Fantasy Film Awards. The film is seen as more of a straight action movie, rather than a straight horror film. The film has a mid-1980s rock and roll/hard rock soundtrack composed entirely by the group AC/DC, Stephen King's favorite band. AC/DC's album, Who Made Who, was released as the Maximum Overdrive soundtrack. It includes the best-selling singles Who Made Who, You Shook Me All Night Long, and Hells Bells.

Plot:
When the tail of rogue comet Rhea-M passes through Earth's atmosphere, humanity's worst nightmares come to life as machines gradually develop minds of their own, turning on their creators in bloody rebellion. At the Dixie Boy truck stop just outside Wilmington, North Carolina, both workers and patrons alike are coming to grips with the horror as a series of increasingly bizarre accidents occur, some injurious, some near-fatal, and some fatal. The terror finally comes to a head when the parked trucks - led by one for a toy company which sports a demonically-smiling goblin face - each start up on their own, circling the truck stop and preventing anyone from getting in or out. Trapped by the trucks and an emotionless manager, a young ex-con takes it upon himself to lead the rescue of anyone in the immediate vicinity who's life is in danger, and to ultimately escape the truck stop and head to safety. Unfortunately, things become more complicated when a machine-gun-mounted mobile platform orders each of the humans to pump gasoline for the trucks. Pitted against an army of machines demonized by an unknown phenomenon, the people trapped in the Dixie Boy truck stop must use stealth and a concealed arsenal to escape. In the meantime, they realize that there is more to the tail of Rhea-M than they initially thought.

Meni se je isto svidio za jednu trash razbibrigu; dobar soundtrack, odlični karikaturni likovi (neki više neki manje), nekoliko duhovitih scena te još toliko brutalnih. Jedan od onih filmova koji sebe ne uzima za ozbiljno i u tome se sasvim dobro snalazi.

Slažem se u potpunosti, da je možda netko drugi bio na mjestu režije uz bolji scenarij možda bi film i bio nešto posebno na kraju dok je ovako dosta slab ispao.dark_driving wrote:bolje da se king nije primao rezije

Ovo nisam gledao sto godina, ali u sjećanju mi je ostao kao zabavavan blesavi hororac s fenomenalnim soundtrackom.
Kad bi ga danas pogledao vjerojatno bi ostao razočaran, filmom, ne mjuzom.

Štef je režirao ovaj zaboravljiv film a glavno da se je posrao po svakom filmu napravljenom po njegovim knjigama i pričama
