"There's no need to beat around the bush: this movie is the worst piece of garbage that I have ever laid my poor eyes upon. Reason Numbero Uno: The plot doesn't make sense. The writers never took the time to explain anything that's happening in the movie, so the viewer is left in the dark. Reason #2: The "actors" (as you can tell, I use the term loosely) in this movie don't have enough talent to be an extra in a Cheetos commercial. Also, their characters are so weak and one dimensional that the viewer ends up wishing that they would all just die unexplainedly, so the movie would end. Reason #3: The "futuristic" car that the main character is making looks like a fancy cardboard box with wheels. Reason #4: The title doesn't make sense. There are no killing cars in this movie, even though there is a catchy little number with the name of the movie.This movie ranks among the most terrible pictures ever. In fact, it's right up there with stinkers like Revenge of the Dead and Solar Force. I recommend this movie only to those who are brave enough to experiece serious bouts of rage and frustration."

Cheezy, but somehow still manages to be fun.

"West German film, also known as "Blitz, which in my opinion, is the better title for this movie than "Killing Cars" (Which is also a bit misleading) as there are actually no killing cars in this movie (Like in say, "The Car" or "Maximum Overdrive"), but like I said, this movie is cheezy, but somehow manages to be fun. The copy I purchased was not from Vidmark, as stated on this site, but I bought a copy from Cineplex Odeon/MCA. I got it on eBay from some guy in Canada/



The movie revolves around Ralph Korda (Played by Jurgen Prochnow from "Beverly Hills Cop II"), a brilliant automotive engineer who is building The "World Car", an environmentaly car that runs withour any kind of gas (A hybrid, if you will.) which, as the back of the box says, could mean a revolution in the international motor business and a threat to all oil producing nations. His project soon comes to a halt by an Arab Oil tycoon who happens to own a large financial stake in BAG. Korda, compelled to complete his "World Car" initiates dealings with investors from New York and other tycoons. He soon becomes involved in a violent and deadly gamble with the odds not in his favor. (SPOILERS AHEAD) The movie ends with Korda, having brought back the "World Car", now wrecked, back to the company headquaters, with the investor telling Korda that the project has been cancelled.



Overall, there was some unintenionally funny parts, like the guy doing the handstand. That was funny. So if you're into cheeze like this, this is for you. Otherwise, steer clear.



Feel free to comment."

"I thought this movie was supposed to have a german language track, but it doesn't. I like Juergen Prochnow quite a bit so I can sit through this film, but I don't think anyone else will be able to."
