Synopsis

Fasten your seatbelts for the terrifying thrill ride that has become a cult classic - The Car! The peaceful tranquility of a small Western town is disturbed when a murderous car wreaks havoc by viciously mowing down innocent victims.

With a digitally remastered picture, The Car has never been more thrilling, more chilling or more explosively entertaining!
