Ah, this movie is such a classic. From the hilarious scene to where a character named Connie asks her boyfriend: "Curtis....are you DAY-YED!!!!", to a little league baseball team getting hit by flying soda cans (the coach takes one of 'em in the crotch - HAHA!). Also, the soundtrack is by AC/DC (which, by the way, you can buy the soundtrack on CD. It's titled "Who Made Who?"). King's only directorial film is an underrated gem. The film's plot: For a week in 1987, a mysterious comet was floating over Earth. During this week, we have truck stop customers and employees, led by Emilio Estevez (who plays a cook in this movie), trying to stay alive when automobiles and appliances come "alive" and start killing people.

When you are driving an old manual car and you kill the engine or set it in neutral at the top of a steep hill and cost down. Done mainly to save petrol.

n. Trucker-speak for coasting down a hill or more often a mountain with the transmission disengaged. 18-wheelers can only go so fast, and the engines slow them down when coasting, so to go faster they take the engine out of gear. Runaway truck ramps were built for people who do this.
Trucker: My load is late. I'll have to switch on my georgia overdrive and get in the hammer lane while I go down this mountain. I might fly off a cliff, but if I don't maybe my load will be a little bit less late.

Wynette: Mark my words, we are going to beat Alien Storm today.
Louis: Wynette, I highly doubt it.

Wynette: Oh no, oh bollocks, I think I’m going into megadrive overdrive! I can't sleep! But I have to beat Alien Storm and then all of Sword of Vermillion.
Louis: We’d better take the day off work tomorrow.
