KILLING CARS is a German thriller which offers a starring role for DAS BOOT's Jurden Prochnow. The story is slow and meandering and resolutely non-exciting despite all attempts to make it otherwise. Our hero plays a guy who comes up with an idea for a revolutionary vehicle only to find himself targeted by corporate villains desperate to get their hands on his patent. Senta Berger, the former starlet of Italian comedies, plays in support, no surprise given her marriage to director Michael Verhoeven. William Conrad has a cameo. This film barely qualifies as a thriller at all and feels more like a cheap Hollywood knock-off than anything else.
