This week’s retro trailer is for the 1977 horror thriller The Car. This is a suspenseful horror-thriller that centers on the residents of a small desert town as they are terrorized by a mysterious, driverless black car.
The film begins with a series of seemingly random hit-and-run murders, where witnesses describe a sleek, menacing vehicle that appears out of nowhere.
Sheriff Wade Parent, played by James Brolin, is tasked with uncovering the truth behind these brutal attacks. As the death toll rises, it becomes clear that the car is not just an ordinary vehicle but an unstoppable, malevolent force with a mind of its own.
The tension builds as the sheriff and his team try to find a way to stop the car before it destroys everything in its path.
The atmosphere of the film and the desert town its set in create a feeling of isolation, which enhances the terror as the car hunts down its victims.
This is a one of those older fun films many of you may have never heard of and it’s one that’s worth the watch!
