Really funny movie. The ones rating this as bad is missing the entire point :)

@d2freak To be fair, this came well into King's cocaine addiction. He's pretty much disowned the movie, and vowed never to direct again after making it. I don't think the movie we got was the movie he intended to make. The story itself is a bit more bleak. They definitely jazzed things up for Hollywood.

Cheesy AF but I laughed a lot and the music is great. It's worth a watch.

I absolutely love this movie! Any time I see it streaming we watch it again. It’s bad, in a good way!

A guilty pleasure most at home on late night cable TV, repeated (uncensored) viewings diminish some of its charm. It’s raw, coked-out Stephen King. The soundtrack remains timeless.

I've always loved this movie but why didn't the comet take over Curtis and Connie's car?

One of the most infamous films of the ‘80s, Maximum Overdrive is wildly entertaining. Written and directed by Stephen King, when an astrological phenomenon causes machines to rise up and attack mankind, a group of survivors take refuge at a truck station. It’s a really exciting concept that allows for a lot of crazy scenes of machines running amuck. And, AC/DC rocks the shit out of this movie with their soundtrack, which includes such hits as “Who Made Who,” “You Shook Me All Night Long,” and “Hells Bells.” Though it’s incredibly cheesy and over-the-top, Maximum Overdrive delivers a ton of dumb fun.

Good Lord, what a glorious train wreck. Nobody seems to be trying hard on this one. The end result is hilariously bad.

Hands down the most assinine attempt of a horror flick ever, but it doesn't matter. Maximum Overdrive has the best damn soundtrack of any movie ever, so the lines and acting can be as cheesy as the blue cheese your grandmother tortured you with as a kid, I will still re-watch it just for the fact that the music makes me so damn happy.

AC/DC + cheesy 80s horror = a damn win in my book

To be a little serious at the end here...

Maximum Overdrive is NOT a good movie. It's more a comedy than a horror flick...which probably wasn't the intention. It has some of the cheesiest lines ever written, and the acting is bad. Though...It's still an above average watch... AC/DC remember!!!!
