Alasdair Orr Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

rodrig58 Six years after Spielberg's "Duel," this "The Car" resumes the theme and manages to make an equally dramatic and engaging film. Perhaps this is exactly what Elliot Silverstein has proposed and succeeded. Not seeing who the driver is, the big black car is the evil character, a devil-possessed car. Which "dies" in a massive explosion, but because is the devil himself, the end credits are flowing on the images with the wheels of the same car... Great performances by all the actors, James Brolin, John Marley, Ronny Cox, but specially by Kathleen Lloyd and R.G. Armstrong. Great suspense!

capone666 The CarIf cars drive themselves who is going to tip the squeegee kid at the light?Actually, the self-driving vehicle in this thriller would most likely run them down.A mysterious black Lincoln Continental appears in town one day and proceeds to rundown cyclists, hitchhikers and the high school marching band. After the driverless death machine massacres the sheriff, deputy Wade (James Brolin) is left to protect the townsfolk.With a plan to draw the killer car into a canyon to crush it, the impenetrable auto preempts Wade's plan at every turn. Begging the question: is it possessed?Although it predates other haunted hotrod horror movies by a few years, this low-budget road movie lacks the style and story of those later releases. However, The Car has maintained a cult status amongst genre fans for its demonic origin.Sadly, it's not the devil perpetrating killer car attacks anymore, but ISIS.

Sam Panico America. The late 70s. It was a very different time and place, to be sure. Fuel was scarce. Crime wasn't. We weren't yet in the grip of the 1980s Satanic Panic, but thanks to Manson, Son of Sam and Zodiac, we were darn close. And despite blockbusters taking over the cinema, there remained grimy little movies unafraid to broadcast their flirtations with the dark lord – The Devil's Rain, The Omen, Mephisto Waltz and this largely forgotten little thriller — The Car.I first saw this film in another way the 70s were different — we only had five channels. ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS and a new pay channel – HBO. And unlike the HBO that you know and love today, there were no original series or blockbuster films. Just around 15-20 movies a month that would play again and again and, well, again. Anyone that grew up in the halcyon days of nascent HBO can recite many of them by heart: Flash Gordon, Sharkey's Machine, Superfuzz, Scavenger Hunt, They Call Me Bruce and The Car. I can personally claim to have seen this film over 280 times, perhaps because the summertime was all reruns when it originally aired and perhaps because it was my grandfather's favorite movie (until Terminator 2 came out and that is a story for another article).You'll notice another difference about 70s movies right from the start of this film — kids aren't just put in danger to scare the audience. No, in 1977, movies just outright killed kids two minutes into the movie and we sat there in mortal terror, watching jaws agape.Let's back up a bit. The hero of The Car is, quite literally, The Car. A George Barris customized 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III (Barris also created the 60s Batmobile), the secret of The Car appears to have no driver at the wheel…unless you count Satan! It has a blaring horn noise that is based on the Morse code for the letter X and it shows up just blasting that horn when you least expect it. Don't take it from me. Take it from the two kids, a hitchhiker and the sheriff that it smooshes. After that nice little spot of multiple vehicular homicide, The Car goes after an entire marching band and their leader Lauren (played by Kathleen Lloyd, who you may remember from It Lives Again, a sequel to It's Alive), chasing them the whole way to a cemetery. It turns out The Car can't cross hallowed ground, so she stands and insults it and calls it names. That leads to her boyfriend Chief Deputy Wade Parent chasing the car, shooting at it and tries to get into The Car, only to discover that it has no doorhandles.READ MORE AT http://www.thatsnotcurrent.com/40-years-later-look-back- car-1977/

Rainey Dawn This is one devilish car: There is no driver, no door handles and it kills people - how do you stop it? Who possesses it? Who will be it's next victim and why? Watch The Car to find out more.The film is a very creepy horror-thriller with a lot of mystery surrounding The Car.I very much liked this movie - it really is full of suspense and thrills. It's actually another fun movie to watch yet it would be horrifying if this was reality.This movie would make a great double feature with another awesome horror movie surrounding a car Christine 1983. The only thing that is similar about these two films is the "creepy car" theme - the stories of both films are entirely different.9/10
