Storyline

"Come on sweetheart.....DESTROY!"
11 October 2001 | by (San Francisco, CA) – See all my reviews

A window into the past; the plight of the blue-collar man, the danger of the corporate machine, the folly of the new religion of science and technology, black-sploitation and major homo-erotic undercurrents. Not that any of this is unique to the 70's late-night horror genre, but boy that dee-niner is a beautiful old girl. As a kid, basking in the artificial light of the tube way past my bedtime, I felt conflicted as to the identity of the protagonist....but even now I end up siding with that big yellow dozer, though I've been hardened with age such that I no longer cry when her temper gets the better of her and she meets her cruel fate. Well, maybe sometimes.
