    • Quotes

      Sheriff: You see son, the only thing to be scared of out here is your imagination.

      Doc Hudson: Yep. That, and of course, the Screaming Banshee. Well, good night!

      All cars: Good night!

      [All drive off, except Mater, then all lights shut off]

      Tow Mater: The screaming what?

      [shakes]

    • Crazy credits
      In a post-credits scene, Mater actually sees The Screaming Banshee but, not realizing it is him, warns him of the Banshee before departing, leaving the monstrous truck confused.

    One of the better shorts using feature characters
    The short is pretty cute and unlike BURN-E, etc. it has an identity separate from the feature film the characters are from. There's only a throw away line connection in the first Cars movie to this short. I could see this released in the theatres even if Cars never existed. That's much more than I can say for Mike's New Car.
