If you love ‘so bad it’s the most brilliant film you’ve ever seen’ then Black Cadillac will not disappoint. Not only does it involve a Saab (one of the greatest cars to grace this planet) the three ‘guys’ are the most bizarre mix of characters. There’s Scott (Johnson) the smug, smoothed face blond one, whose luck never runs out. Then there’s C.J (Hammond) ‘pez man,’ a goth creation who constantly nibbles on his sweets and makes constant biblical references. And finally Robby (Dohring), the little virgin brother. To add to the strange mix of unknown and never seen again cast is Randy Quaid. As you’re watching this film the recurring thought of ‘what the hell are you doing here Quaid?’ echoes constantly in your mind, but this only adds to the amazingness that is Black Cadillac. Although the plot is a bit weak and you never really understand why this black Cadillac is following this teenage and hormoned fuelled car (excuse the pun), there are definitely some tense and creepy moments. As always with these types of films, the end never fulfils the intense build up, but because it is a so bad Black Cadillac goes full circle and becomes a very watchable treat! And when watching, count the amount of times the guys scream Waaaahoooo! It’s truly laughable!

OK Film

This film is supposed to be a True Story about 3 boys, who get chased by a Mystery Black '57 Cadillac on a dark lonely country road in winter after they leave a Pub ( where one of the three started a brawl over upsetting one of the local girls ). The film was very much like that classic 1971 film Duel where a guy gets harrased and chased by a Truck. If you enjoyed Duel I think you would enjoy this film.
