In a small American provincial town, trucks and cars suddenly stop. When they start working again, they no longer respond to commands, as if driven by a mysterious force, they begin to spread panic and kill the inhabitants of the area. Only a few will survive... Based on a short story by Stephen King "Trucks", it is a boring and absolutely inconsistent American TV movie, "enhanced" by an "improvised" screenplay and some sequences bordering on the ridiculous (a man manages to get killed by a remote-controlled pickup truck!?). Not recommended.
