Oh my oh my, yet another beautiful Charger smashed to no avail... Some times, I think that it is a must to smash a Charger, in order to make a mediocre road movie. However, this was probably not even intended to be a road movie, but never the less, searching for a road movie, was how I found this. It starts out with a
pretty weak story about a "Laura", moving from the city to a small town, "coz the big city was not a good place to raise a 12 yo girl", and goes down hill from there. However, at 0:50.19 the passenger door of "Wheels of terror" (a clapped out 1974 Charger, dressed in black primer/mud splash), slams shut on the daughter of "Laura", who is now a school bus driver, and the rest of the movie (about 36 min), is one long car chase. The dialogue during the chase, is REALLY REALLY dumb, but at least, there's no annoying music to interfere with the sound of the engines. (Yes, this review is written from a car nut's point of view). The car chase takes place mostly of road, and has it's moments, and the grand finale is sort of cute. If you're into car chases, it is a must.. if not, you should probably try to AVOID this movie!PS: Everybody in the movie keeps on calling this 2door hardtop coupe, a "Sedan".. Maybe it's a sedan in America, but in Europe, it's a brilliant example of a COUPE!
