Goofs

In some shots of the fuel gauge of Carol's station wagon, the gauge reads "Unleaded Fuel Only"; in others it doesn't, probably because they used two different Ford Torino station wagons - a 1972 that ran on regular gas and a 1975 that ran on unleaded.

User Reviews

I didn't expect to be so terrified

watched it on t.v while doing the ironing very late one night. After reading about it in the t.v guide I thought it wouldn't be very good, but was one of the best things I've ever watched on t.v. I don't recall a terrible lot of talking (because she's on her own in the car being stalked for a lot of the time) but it was so terrifying just to watch. Usually I watch these types of movies just to laugh at them and it was good to actually be scared by one for a change. I just wish I had it on video to show all my friends, it would be perfect viewing for a Halloween party or something like that.
