One (1) car that is literally Satan incarnate

The most incompetent-looking police force known to man

The Car
"...there was no driver in the car."

Good idea, not very good script but is entertaining.
Half star goes because of the shots of the car in the distance and the sound. They're gorgeous.
The music in the opening is the exact same shit as the music in The Shining, I don't care about this Dies Irae thing, they're just the same and this movie is older. (Both soundtracks are great tho)
The design of the car is amazing.
