....and then they got lost. Maybe it played really well in the area where they filmed but meaningless outside GA. Yes, the acting was stiff and wooden, but that's to be expected in a campy movie - several times I saw the string pulling the cap, nice!
At least it didn't look like shot-on-video garbage or 'found film' excrement, film quality was good and the characters were at least partially believable. The downside was all the subplots that go nowhere and hackneyed clichés of red/blue/black/white/hick/city. And why did the hubcap get relegated to a minor side note?
Oh, at least we didn't have to see guys' gluteus which seems to be the the only skin allowed now.

"Hubcap" delivers a fun, campy horror experience reminiscent of cult classics like Rubber and Christine. Set in a conservative mountain town, the film follows Rainy Lawson, Georgia's first female sheriff, as she takes on a supernatural killer with an unusual form-a possessed hubcap. Alongside the horror, the film weaves in themes of vengeance, romance, and deep-seated social tensions, making for an engaging watch.
The movie embraces its B-movie aesthetic, leaning into the absurdity of its premise while keeping the audience hooked with its eerie atmosphere and unexpected moments of dark humor. It's a blend of supernatural horror and small-town drama that feels fresh and unpredictable.
That said, there are some technical shortcomings, particularly in the sound design. The dialogue mixing is inconsistent, with moments where background noise fluctuates noticeably between cuts. Some lines also seem to suffer from microphone issues, which can be a bit distracting. However, these flaws don't detract too much from the overall experience.
If you enjoy quirky horror films where everyday objects turn deadly, Hubcap is well worth a watch. It's a creative, revenge-driven horror flick with a unique premise, and despite some technical hiccups, it remains thoroughly entertaining.

I know...a movie about a flying hubcap that kills people...you are thinking LSD 3AM obscure channel with nothing else on.... However.....
Give it a chance! The movie wasn't as silly as the title might lead you to believe. There was an actual plot with a couple of subplots that made sense when put together. And the reason for the Hubcap becoming to life again there is a reason behind it...replace "Hubcap" with an animal etc., a protector of the wronged and it does make sense.
Of course the token sex scenes (which IMHO weren't really needed) and some salty F bombs were minor detractions, and a little slow at times but again not too shabby.
And of course the ending leaves open the possibility of a sequel.... How about "The Cap is Back!"
So in conclusion, don't judge by the title alone...put it all together and give it a chance, its not all that bad!

This kind of off-the-wall comedy is what indie filmmaking is all about. If you want your standard comedy then stick to studio movies but if you're a little tire of the same old, same old then give this crazy flick a shot. It is really far out. I don't know what the writer was on but whatever it was it worked. I don't think you can come up with a half-baked idea like this while sober. The movie is very well shot and the acting is fantastic. It is entertaining throughout, which is more than I can say for lots of studio films, and it is, for the most part, fairly clean. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
I was willing to give this a go, due to it having a reasonable rating on imdb and also a very strange premise. Unfortunately i found this movie to be incredibly tedious with a terrible script, amateur acting, incredibly bad sound quality and poor attempts at comedy (cinematography is fine for the most part). A number of characters introduced were completely pointless and the plot was all over the place. The film really seems to completely run out of steam in the.third act; they even 'shot the rodeo' ....Ive seen some great low and even no budget movies in the past, but this is one everyone can safely skip as you will be missing nothing. Wash your car instead.
