i made this poll so i could vote for "duel"

― metametadata (n/a), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:15 (seventeen years ago)

I also voted for "Duel", it's an obvious choice really, though I remember "christine" being good.

― The Plastic Fork (Pashmina), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:16 (seventeen years ago)

I was pretty young when I first saw it on TV, and it really creeped me out, I actually had a few bad dreams afterwards.

The Cars That Ate Paris

― Ich Ber ein Binliner (Tom D.), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:17 (seventeen years ago)

i haven't seen all of these, but christine freaked me out as a kid.

Would Maximum Overdrive count?

― Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:20 (seventeen years ago)

(but i'm voting for Duel nonetheless)

What's the one where the guy has the motorbike which turns into a woman and he has sex with the motorbike and then dies?

sounds like a meatloaf video

― metametadata (n/a), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:22 (seventeen years ago)

is this another one of those magical typewriter movies

― Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:22 (seventeen years ago)

Hitcher?

― Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:26 (seventeen years ago)

i guess i was primarily thinking of movies where a car itself is scary/murderous, either through supernatural or nonsupernatural means

― metametadata (n/a), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:28 (seventeen years ago)

yes, scratch that one then

― Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:28 (seventeen years ago)

but i could have expressed that better.

maximum overdrive looks like it could have fit but i had never heard of that movie before

― metametadata (n/a), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:28 (seventeen years ago)

I was just going to ask where's Maximum Overdrive?

I would've still voted for Duel, but M.O. puts the AC/DC song "Who Made Who?" in much better perspective.

But really, n/a, this means nothing to you?

What's the one where the guy has the motorbike which turns into a woman and he has sex with the motorbike and then dies?

was it japanese?

― Edward III, Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:32 (seventeen years ago)

In my head the guy on it was Jamaican, but I may have conflated about six movies in this.

― Carrie Bradshaw Layfield (The stickman from the hilarious 'xkcd' comics), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:33 (seventeen years ago)

cool runnings?

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:34 (seventeen years ago)

Maximum Overdrive wasn't just cars, it was everything mechanical...Killdozer isn't technically a car...(but then again, neither is the truck in Duel and Joyride)...I'm voting for The Car...it killed a woman who was sitting in her living room...

Amos Clements: [complaining about Morris' french horn] If I hear another sound out of that thing, I'll ram it so far up your ass you'll be farting music for a year.
John Morris: [thoughtfully considering the idea] Wouldn't that be fantastic? Farting music!

― Black Seinfeld (HI DERE), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:45 (seventeen years ago)

― s1ocki, Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:51 (seventeen years ago)

Why isn't Knight Rider on this list. Scary as fuck.

― ☑ (Pleasant Plains), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 15:53 (seventeen years ago)
