What Makes the Movie World of the Eighties Great! December 1, 2002 Jason 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Its a dark, cold night. The hard rain hitting the window is distorted by the crackling of coal fire and the curtains are closed so the tele licence van won't see the flickering from the television. Everyone sits, staring, me and my brother especially intrigued by the mysterious black car and the unusual super human standing in its shadow on the video cover. Introducing the film is the sound of the drums from a typical eighties song, similar to those on the likes of Rocky, Over the Top and Heavenly Kid. The picture and sound quality, a reflection of that era in video technology, and the very element which is captured by our imagination and stored there forever. We sit, only eight or nine years old, with very little understanding of what is happening, yet astounded by the powers of destruction, speed and the enforcement of justice. Twelve years later, I unearthed 'The Wraith' after several desperate attempts to find it again. Watching it again, after so long and with a completely different view on society, a whole new view of life and with a wealth of knowledge and experience in the art of Movies, it still astounds, it still amazez and is still the very aspect of my childhood memories, which make them great. Excellent.
American Cheese August 28, 2005 Peter Cullen (1CCB) 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
This film is definatly the father of american feel good factor. The very foundation that Never been kissed, she's all that and many more were built on. I have to say finding this copy was an absolute prize. The suprising thing for me is that after 17 years of special effects development this film still stands up, if for no other reason than its a great film, with a great story and was well acted, The Cars are absolutly fantastic, the black Turbo is superb its allways stuck in my mind and was great to see it on a big screen. I loved it then and love it still.

Movie with soon to be big stars June 15, 2002 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I liked this movie as it had stars not yet fully known. For Charlie Sheen AKA The Wraith was also in Red Dawn, Navy Seals is now known. Randy Quaid was a top star for movie Independence Day (ID4), Sherilyn Fenn is now known for TV shows. That PPG Turbo Interceptor is out of this world. The man who played Packard Walsh, like Sheen is the son of a famous actor also. I have the pre-record Tape in Dolby Surround there will only be one like this original story. Using a car to evenge his demise at the hands of a gang for the leader to get his girlfriend is the sub plot. I have watched this movie over 300 times on my analog TV and my HDTVsince the tape came out in 1987! I now want to buy the DVD so it will never wear out. I can watch it the rest of my life. This one movie not to pass up!
