'The Car: Road to Revenge' is a very different kind of revenge movie, as well as a ghost story. Some might compare it to 'Christine', but it is indeed very different. It is, in fact, a spinoff sequel to 1977's 'The Car'.

The film is set in the not too distant future. James is a wealthy, egotistical District Attorney who reinstated the death penalty. While the police methods might seem unorthodox, one has to keep in mind this is set in the future, and who is to know what laws may be implemented in the future to combat crime? Just keep an open mind and it might be acceptable.

I found Grant Bowler likable as the film's hero, detective Rainer. Kathleen Munroe starred as Daria - a very strong character, but I would have liked to know a bit more about her and her background. The love interest between them was cliched, but I somehow wanted - and expected - it from the characters. Unfortunately there is no real payoff apart from being just another cliche.

There are some interesting characters here - from a guy dressed like a character from centuries past, to cyborgs, and futuristic looking characters, to ordinary characters. The gang of bad guys are supposedly aliens, but they are underdeveloped characters and their intentions are not very clear. Were they mortals, it would have made no difference whatsoever. Speaking of intentions, I also didn't really understand James' intentions. He clearly wanted to take revenge on the gang, but he also killed some innocent bystanders in the process, and was obviously insanely jealous of Daria. Was it all about revenge of just a killing spree?

The film features some good visuals, and surprised me with excellent photography, and good action sequences. It got better and better as the film progressed. (This would have been awesome with a big budget.) Be warned, some scenes are brutal and gory. A lot of scenes would have benefited significantly had they been slightly longer. A number of scenes felt like they ended too abruptly.

In general, I was pleasantly surprised by 'The Car: Road to Revenge'. The sound was good, the score was good, the photography was good, and there were lots of action. Don't take it too seriously, don't over-analyze it, and you will have a good time with it. I did.

Would I watch it again? Yes.

First off this is not in anyway a sequel or remake to Stephen King's/ John Carpenter's Christine (1983). Evidently you that have said so did not see or year of the much superior The Car (1977). Get your facts straight. The original The Car had style, atmosphere, and good action. This wanna be sequel sacrificed much of that for poor CGI graphics and weak story line. It amps up the gore but it is so fake looking with tge overuse of CGI. I gave this a few extra stars for some decent action scenes and the Car itself. It adds nothing to the original.

I imagine anyways, someone did wayyyy too much blow and then wrote this screenplay...and then maybe blackmailed someone in order to actually get it made. I dunno, something along those lines CAUSE IT SURE AS HELL HAS NOTHING TO SO WITH IT BEING A GOOD MOVIE.

This was a pure joke this is no way even close to the original i waited for 30 years and I couldn't even get through 30 minutes please don't do anything else like this

Fans of the original cult classic 1970's 'The Car' , do not bother with this movie.

From a filmmakers stand point it was a complete film but to call this a sequel to the original was a travesty!

I'm sick and I despise what was created!

They should have called this something totally different and never associated it with the original!

I'm sick!

Why did Ronnie sign on to this debacle! It had no heart .. especially no heart in the essence of THE CAR!

Why would you make a sequel to the car and greenlight this garbage?! why why why?? The car is one of my favorite 70s horror flicks ans you created something so stupid and worthless...

Took a great concept of a mysterious car terrifying a small desert town...weeding out its sins...and turns into something stupid.

In the process, it rips off concepts and elements from; The Dark Knight Johnny Mnemonic Robocop Lethal Weapon 2 Christine Nemesis Ooh...tried to kill somebody with a pencil ala John Wick. And rehashes cool scenes from the original The Car.

The Car in this movie is far from ominous and intimidating. Poor engine sound effects and it sounds like it has a bad rocker tick.

Pretty low mileage movie that could use a huge bottle of octane boost. By the end, it rips off Austin Powers by making a Mini Me.

I created this account just to leave this review. THAT'S how awful I believe this movie to be.

I found this movie while browsing for something to watch one day and was so excited to watch it. I couldn't believe they made a sequel to one of my favorite movies of all time and I hadn't heard about it! Within 5 minutes I was almost in tears with disappointment and I sat thru the entire thing hoping... praying it would redeem itself. It never happened. This is the first time I've had a top 5 favorite movie of mine spawn a sequel that became one of the top 5 WORST movies I have ever seen. The story sucks, it's hard to follow, it jumps all over the place, and "The Car" is just a casting extra in the movie. The worst part was where I could see the cameraman in one scene (when the girl gets off the elevator in the office building and walks by the desk, look at its reflection). Total garbage. 2 Girls 1 Cup was a better example of filmmaking than this.

This isn't a very good movie, but it's not unwatchable. Almost completely unrelated to the original 1977 film (which I am a huge fan of), but the car does resemble the original car by the end. This movie takes the similar approach of what if, but different? The original film was "What if Jaws, but it was a car", this is "What if The Crow, but he's a car". The cyberpunk sci-fi future is a weird touch, and I must ask, why do so many bad sequels go sci fi with non sci fi source material? Seriously, Highlander 2, Jason X, Leprechaun 4, Hellraiser 4, it's a very strange trend. Anyway, I enjoyed this enough. For what it is, it's a decent time waster and has some nice gore effects. Recommended for lazy Sunday afternoons when nothing is on TV. Incidentally does anyone know what make and model the car used in this movie is? I swear it looks like a modified Chrysler 300, but I'm not sure.

After reading some negative reviews I had to write this. What I expected is what I got. Enjoyable squishy kill scenes, bad guys that were hateable. Reminded me of A Clockwork Orange in some areas, yes Mad Max and Christine Maybe some Deathrace without the tally. I dont know what you expected but maybe if you step back and take a look, it isnt Its a Wonderful Life...

'this is a true reprise of a good old car movie from the early 80's,that are still the best anyhow. also with inspiration from the first 3 madmax movies,and a few moreof the kind,then you have the car on the road to revenge.

its all about a sinister car spirit that takes revenge on everyone that has been cruel somehow to the car or its owner or close friends of the carowner. its not a good film, but its not bad either. the storyline are lousy and simple, much of the acting are on c-level, but the slashing and cruelty made on man and machine are topnotch if it is what youre looking for....a bit much dressing on the salad if you ask me, but i guess this is the salesargument behind making films like this. the special effects are good at times.

its worth a look if you can outstand extreme car violence because its some of the most graphical images and effects i have seen in a feature movie.

so take a chance on me,its recommended

I've seen the original several times because it had decent actors and a really cool Barris custom car. This movie is full of nobodies that can't act. I didn't finish it.

It is simply unwatchable with grade Z-rated acting and a flat dialogue. Don't waste your time watching this show unless you like a dull movie that offer no entertainment value.

I am giving it a 4 rating for effort, it was not that bad, the post apocalyptic setting could have been better but i do understand the low budget.

I always have an issue with people walking down pretty street when all is suppose to be squashed.

I guess they say its a sequel to the 1977 movie The car, but a part from the car driving itself, there is more in common with John Carpenter Christine then that car.

There is some good gore, death scenes and more.

Its an ok way to pass an hour and a half if you have nothing to do.

The thing about the original 1977 movie, what made it both scary and compelling, was that you never got to know why the car was killing people, it just did it. And they weren't bad people either, they were just ordinary people doing ordinary things, and you were introduced to them as such before the car killed them.

By setting up this film as a conventional revenge-from-the-grave story with stereotypical goth-clown villains and what we're allowed to assume is an AI-controlled car (which doesn't even look intimidating), all of that is lost. When the possibility of a supernatural explanation is introduced mid-way through, it's too late - at that point, the audience rightly sees that car as little more than a means of advancing the ho-hum murder-revenge plot-line. It's not scary enough in itself to take over the movie, like the original car did.

People will say, "it's a low-budget film, so don't have such high expectations," but the original film had a lower budget than this one, even in 1977 dollars, and it's considered a modern horror classic. There were good, creative ideas behind it which this one just doesn't have.

From the tittle and lovely made poster, I thought (or they wanted to make us think it was) that was a sequel of the awesome original The Car movie from 1977.

This was not at all a sequel, nor even a well done horror movie using a car. For me, this movie just look like they were hoping to "click & bait" people who watched and loved the original movie.

I figured that right after like the first 30mn, and stopped watching by then. But hey, if you like the genre, go and watch it, and I will let you be your own judge.

Despite The Car: Road to Revenge's low review score, I wanted to give it a try since I love so-bad-they're-good movies, gore (mentioned in other reviews), and hot cars. The Car showed potential at first; everything's clearly low budget, and one particularly bad CGI moment early on made me cringe, and I love cringing. Unfortunately, the film ended up being too boring and lackluster to recommend even to those who like bad movies.

Here's the story in a nutshell: a district attorney named Caddock is murdered by some criminals, becomes one with his car after death, and hunts down his killers in a rampage of revenge. Caddock's character is underdeveloped (as proof, the IMDB summary doesn't even use his name, just his DA title), but what we do know about him before he dies and is rebirthed as a vengeful car is that he's a crappy human being and potential domestic abuser. I love anti-heroes, but there was no rhyme or reason for it here that I could really get behind. Honestly, I don't understand why the director bothered with such a complicated backstory. I would've enjoyed just a random possessed homicidal car more than this get-up (which is apparently the story behind the 1977 original, which is reviewed far better).

The murderous car itself (a heavily modified Chrysler 300, which is immediately obvious to all us car gals out there) is attractive and intimidating. Other than the car, only one other character intrigued me: a nameless gothic villain with a top hat played by Keith-Lee Castle who has as much sass as eye makeup and a robotic-enhanced pointer finger that stabs people. This character was eccentric and interesting, but the filmmakers don't give him the time he deserves (as evidenced by the fact that the movie's credited cast does NOT include either the character's name or this actor). This is mind-boggling, and once this character kicked the bucket halfway through the film, I called it quits. He was the only enjoyable aspect of it other than the car, and the car already had plenty of screen-time.

A few short tidbits: the gore in this isn't particularly impressive. There are no giblets or prolonged torture scenes; when people die you just tend to see a splash of CGI blood. As a gorehound, I was immensely disappointed. The whole film has this cheap, low-lighted, bluish-tint that ended up fatiguing my eyes after a few scenes. If you're looking for a movie that's actually good and has cybernetically-enhanced people fighting it out in a sci-fi setting, I recommend Upgrade (2018). The Car: Road to Revenge attempts this and fails, and in many ways I see how they attempted to imitate Upgrade.

I don't recommend this, even for those of us who like bad movies. All its potentially enjoyable aspects are cut too short to matter. On the plus side, now I know about the original movie from 1977, so I've added that to my watchlist.

This is a B-movie, period. It probably would have worked better as a comedy, but for some reason the director/writer actually tried to do action/adventure/horror....and none of them well.

Just skip it.

Medium Story line, but Good shock scenes. Would have been nicer if iT had more twists And better special effects.

Overall...not a waste

This movie was hella dumb. Terrible actors, horrible special effects. The story line didn't make sense. Somebody was definitely high when they wrote this movie.

I like this movie and I will be waiting for its next part Those who don't like this movie have their own tastes But if this movie has been rated by the comparison with another movies then it is not right. This movie is the modernized sequel of ( The Car 1977 ).. "This movie is Completely different" The Director has made a movie for us with all his hard works Always praise whether good or bad Encourage to do something good If this movie is called G J Echternkamp's best movie then it will not be wrong.. I love your work man G J Echternkamp

It is a silly premis and spiritual sequel kind of. But its a killer car movie. Theres not a whole lot of those these days

It wasn't the best but it definitely wasn't the worst. I love me some revenge movies lol so, as sadistic as it sounds, I was rooting for the car when it was squashing the people that killed him brutally. So, that was good. Overall, it wasn't too bad but nothing extraordinary. Just an ordinary movie but one that I don't regret watching.
