An action horror film about a radiation storm that somehow animates machines across the world, causing them to turn on their makers. The film focuses on a group of survivors held captive at the Dixie Boy Diner by a group of bad-tempered semis. Led by Emilio Estevez, the diner-goers do their impression of Ten Little Indians, waiting their turn until each gets bumped off one by one. It seems that movie crtics think this is Stephen King's worst. Don't listen to critics. This movie has great action and Emilio Estevez is awesome! Maximum Overdrive Genre- Action Thriller Rated R for Violence, Language, Horrifying Death Sequences, and some sexual scenes.
