I forgot about that evil ride in "the car" It was the baddest at just being evil. Running over hippie hitchikers rules!

The original Batmobile was cool. It was the two "lifepartners in the gay costumes that ruined it. I mean the car had fire coming out the back 24/7, that earns points man!

I have to vote for good old American Iron. Blade's Dodge Charger looks like it would kick my car in the balls and take its lunch money.

hey, i dont know if its the same thing, but there was a short film on a show on sci-fi called exposed about this van who was kinda stalking people. it was following this girl and chased her down and i think she got in cause it was sitting in the woods opened up....and when she got it, the doors shut and these arms grabbed her and then it stuck this thing into her head and drained her or something. the van was like some living machine that ate people for fuel.

OH, who can forget the cars from The Wraith!!!

yea i remember the wraith. if you watch that movie close enough, you can piont out ton's of mistakes. one, for instance, when thier up on the mountain road and filming the "wraith" car from the front, the sun cast a shadow on the film crew infront of the car and you see it on the road.

The 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS (Melba Toast) and the 1970 Pontiac GTO (The Judge) from Dazed and Confused

Great movie, Spielbergs 1st IIRC

if we are going to include trucks as well what about the one from Stephen Kings"Maximum Overdrive"



it scared the hell out of me when I was a little fella

I was thinking about Maximum Overdrive earlier and thought it was the most psychotic vehicles, but I wouldn't call it the baddest??

Far from being the "baddest". But a great, memorable movie car regardless. I remember seeing Herbie at a drive-in theater with my folks as a kid. Dad stopped by a VW dealer later and they had a fiberglass bodied "Herbie" go-cart in the showroom. I was in heaven.

How about the "Little Bastard";

Ho ho!!!

The baddest movie car of all time is Mad Max's INTERCEPTOR from the opening chase scene.......not that dumb blown V8 with a push-button blower or whatever. His first Interceptor is the hottest ride of all time!!!

Yellow and blue? Like a 510 on steroids? With toggle switches? DAMN!!!!

Here's the pic:
