19 czerwca 1987 roku, rankiem, Ziemia weszła w zasięg komety Rhea-M i pozostała w nim przez kolejne osiem dni. To, co wówczas zaczęło się dziać na naszej planecie, przypominało istną rzeź. Pod wpływem fal magnetycznych wszelkie maszyny ożyły i zaczęły walkę z ludźmi. Samochody, piły, helikoptery, automaty do kawy zapragnęły zemsty na swoich twórcach i siały zniszczenie na masową skalę.

Maximum Overdrive is basicly Stephen King on so much coke. It is simultaneously a very bad and also very unique movie. Plus, it is fun to think about what is going on.

Stephen King was given the opportunity to film his own short story, Maximum Overdrive... And he went about it with obvious enthusiasm. While in the book only cars came to life, here, as the master himself said, everything from a lawnmower to a soda machine could come to life (a stunning scene, by the way). The result is an extremely wacky, morbidly black-humored mechanical variation on Hitchcock's The Birds, in which anything is possible and in which something happens from beginning to end. That "something" is also very King-like. Those who are familiar with the master's literary style will be delighted by his typical spectacular, almost apocalyptic moments, such as the opening sequence on the bridge (falling cars, flying melons...) or the little boy's ride through the town where everyone is dead. The soundtrack was also provided by AC/DC, so there's not much to talk about in that regard... I feel like giving a fifth star for the cameo appearance of the director/screenwriter/author.
