    Maximum Overdrive (1986)

    Aliens possess the world's machines, sending a convoy of trucks to terrorize a band of gas station dumb dumbs. With music by AC/DC and direction by Stephen King, what could go wrong? Well... don't drink and drive, folks. We're getting under the hood to assess this 80s highway to hell: behind-the-scenes turmoil, lost eyes, substance abuse, and even George Romero's rumored shadow direction. Plus, why Evil Dead II owes its existence to the film, King's work & legacy, and more Simpson's references than you'd expect. Now get in - we're putting this baby into maximum overdrive!
