The second adaptation of Stephen King's short story Trucks. The first being the rather infamous Maximum Overdrive which was directed by the author himself. One would think an actual filmmaker could have done a better job of turning the tale of sentient motor vehicles into a movie, but alas that is not the case. Turns out Trucks might just be a really boring story that King inadvertently gave some "so bad, it's good" glory to when bringing it to the screen back in the '80s. His coked up state while on the set allowed for a lot of schlock value when viewed with the right, preferably inebriated mindset. Something this take completely misses out on by adopting a more serious approach outside of two particularly ridiculous (and gory) kills involving a child's remote-controlled dump truck and an inflated hazmat suit. And without them all you are left with is a cast of unlikable characters that are trapped in a situation that is nowhere near as exciting or fun to watch as it should be.
