They say it’s impossible to intentionally make a “good-bad” movie. That they only happen by accident. Maximum Overdrive says nope. The cast and crew put their back into making what they knew was a bad movie. And, against all odds, it rocks from the first scene out. Any movie that shows someone getting murdered by a rogue soda machine is marked for great things.
That’s how I feel about Cats 2019. Is horrible? Yes! Is it an awful movie? Yes!
Do I enjoy it for how bad it is? You bet ya!
The cast and crew put their backs into making what they knew was a bad movie.
Same with the younger actors from Cats 2019
@@chasehedges6775 I definitely had more
fun watching cats then Rise of Skywalker that’s for sure.
@@bearerofbadnews1375 💯💯
I might be tripping but I love this shit.
"Every AC/DC sounds like an orangutang screaming."
That's the best description of AC/DC I've ever heard.
Well when Brain Johnson joined the band, not when Bon Scott was in the band.
@@robertparker6280 Bon Scott was the best
@@raymondsolisjr.1262 True
They should hire kenneth coopeland to be lead singer 😁
Also the worst description but haters gonna hate.
I laugh every time that waitress goes: “we made you!“. It’s like she said fuck it and went all out
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Soooo true. She’s hamming it up like crazy!
@@chasehedges6775 It's amazing. Never gets old.
thats the best part of the movie.
My favorite part lmfao
@@skyofthelivingdead 💯💯💯
Over an hour of DT talking about Maximum Overdrive with Billy. Let's go!
When I was little I thought of this movie like a halfway transformers. With evil decepticons killing people, but never transformed. A transformer horror movie would be dope.
Sounds perfect. Hopefully, paramount will loved that idea.
Looks like Nemesis Prime got a face lift inspired by the Green Goblin.
I think the Michael Bay movies are already horror movies on principle.
I really do love that Green Goblin toy truck. Would've been funny if the horn beeped in such a way it sounded like the goblin laugh XD
It should have Mark Hamill’s voice voicing that Green Goblin.
Maximum Overdrive is basically a horror/comedy where Stephen King was too coked out to be in on the joke.
It was so bad, it was almost a parody
The thing is that Stephen King can come out with the basic premise and layout, but don't ask him to put it on the big screen and write the script. The man was not happy with Kubrick's The Shinning but was happy with the Sci-Fi channel's version which was closer to his original version (if you are looking for a bad movie to review next, there you go). That should tell you everything.
Same with J.K Rowling with the fantastic beast movies
His script writing are sometimes hit and miss, but I loved his teleplay of Storm of the Century. And he did write what was the best episode of the entire The Stand (2020), despite the miniseries' quality.
I enjoyed his adaptation of "Silver Bullet" myself, which was based on the book "Cycle of the Werewolf"
That's because he wrote the teleplay for The Shining miniseries himself. It's not that surprising when u consider he had more creative control and was allowed to write the script himself.
@@jongon0848 supporting my point that his involvement in any adaptation to the small/big screen should be limited or at least closely supervised.
"And you know something... I kinda enjoyed it!"
He looks like he's not talking about directing, he's talking about his first murder.
“It was a pleasure to burn”
Someone in the chat said “DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH COKE IVE SACRIFICED?!” Haha 😂
Maximum Overdrive, a disco dust fueled joyride by Stephen King. the AC/DC soundtrack was cool, the killer soda machine was priceless and it's over the top nature. plus it has the Green Goblin i wish was No Way Home 😂
Dijg dong
All they had to do was put green paint on Dafoe face and a prosthetic nose bam green goblin. By the way was that AC/DC music in that teaser or John Carpenter music from Halloween 3 season of the witch.
@@hamhockbeans that was most definitely the Halloween 3:season of the witch music in the Maximum Overdrive trailer. Willem Defoe with slight make-up would've been cool for the goblin.
I'm glad that Stephen has abandoned that "magical negro" nonsense and had the introspective skills to do so. That archetype was WAY too prevalent in his work.
Maximum Overdrive is similar to Showgirls or Tough Guys Don't Dance in that it's so bad it's great.
Too bad that Sia didn't when she made "Music". Otherwise she would still have a career.
His books aren't any better just because they don't have that archetype
Stephen King: I'm gonna scare the hell out of you....
Audience: *laughing at the giant goblin monster truck in the back*
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Or the ice cream truck trying kill people, the vending machine the list goes on.
Well he succeeded but with himself in the trailer
Until that same truck shows up suddenly from the side of behind you riding
I've loved this movie since I was 9 yrs old so I was a bit offended at first, but realized this movie has A LOT of problems. I tend to give this movie a lot of slack lol. As a kid it was actually pretty scary, and as I grew older, all the trivia surrounding Stephen King made it a lot of fun. If you've ever read Stephen King, you know the man is completely insane (in the best way possible). I wouldn't expect anything less from a movie directed by him during his alcohol and drug fuelled days of excess.
Its ok to like a bad movie, especially if its from your childhood. I love Mac n Me, Howard the Duck, and TMNT 2, but i know they arent that great
Yeah. It think its even ok to like bad movies if you're older. As long as you're aware of its flaws or why others would dislike it.
Kung Pow: Enter The fist and Nacho Libre are two that I like but I'm well aware that they're not universally liked :P
@@Smokey1419 I remember all those films in the 80s..lol I also liked that wacky comedy movie starring Adam West did also called "Doing Time on Planet Earth"
I feel like Stephen King *did* do the Hunger Games before the Hunger Games was a thing - it was called The Long Walk and it took place in a dystopian future where young men volunteered to take a nonstop walk from I think from Maine to Boston? The first one to cross the finish line could ask the despotic administration for anything they wanted, but it was clear most of the participants died along the way and it was treated as entertainment by the rest of the nation. Pretty sure it was one of the Bachman books.
I found out that The Long Walk was an influence on Koshun Takami when he wrote his book, Battle Royale.
Oh my that face! 👀 😭 1:19
Drugs are kicking in 🥴 4:04
Lmao sounds just like him 😂 14:21
Starring Cheech & Chong 16:16
The machine disrespected him! 🤬 20:48
He does not need that many cigarettes lol 😂 22:54
I think she's mad 👀 26:06
They made "southern people" look silly 🤦🏾♂️ 29:18
That had too hurt 32:06
Got him! 😂💯 34:10
Simply move out the way 🤦🏾♂️😂 37:26
Hmm guess he wanted to grab something 👀 39:48
Her "death scene" was so awkward 50:48
That's when you can tell the budget is not there 😭 56:01
"Maximum Overdrive" was one of the craziest movies Stephen King made, The only positive I can say about it is the music AC/DC. 💯😂
When the soda can hit the coach in the head, there was a longer sequence where his head swells there for a second then bursts as a brain hemorrage then explodes . The MPAA deemed it too violent for a Uniersal production, as well as producer Dino Delaurentis....
Is that in the deleted scenes? First I've heard of that. Also, given what made it into the movie, it's weird that's the hill the MPAA decided to die on. Lol
@@alekesam Photos of the effect were published in Fangoria Magazine, issue number I do not remember, but Mr. King also mentioned it in our discussions. But no, there is no deleted scene footage available, but there was more to the effect than was displayed in the edited version.
@@Jones23Boy Ah gotcha. Thanks man. Wasn't doubting you just wanted the source because you know if I repeat this elsewhere they're going to ask *me* where I got it from. Lol
@southernfried19 yeah when Dead Meat and Nostalgia Critic reviewed it, they showed that scene and I was dying lol
Knowing that Giancarlo Esposito (Gus Fring from Breaking Bad) was in this movie as the guy in the arcade that gets electrocuted always makes me giggle a little bit. At the end, it says that a UFO was shot down by a "Russian weather satellite", I believe; giving a reason for why the machines gained sentience.
My favorite moment is when the atm calls him an asshole. Couldn’t stop laughing.
This is definitely one of my guilty pleasure movies. It’s legit much better than most people give it credit for. Definitely works best if you view it as a black comedy rather than a straight up horror movie.
Dark...Dark Comedy
Same here.
It is an amazing movie and you can tell the actors had a lot of fun on the movie because they are putting in actual good work the kind that comes from real enjoyment in a project and everybody works so well together in the cast.
I see it as more of a "Tongue in Cheek" Action Film with horror elements.
That diesel gas price at the 28:20 mark….good ol days price. 😂
Fun fact: They had to cut a scene with a possessed vibrator to avoid the dreaded X Rating.
Is this true?
@@rrmenton8016 No 🤭
As for Martin's joke about Stephen King writing Hunger Games, he kinda already did that with The Long Walk.
This movie rocks! It has potentially worse scenes in most 1980s movies but it gain a MAJOR cult following to this very day. Stephen King is the king of horror and thriller books.
Surprised u guys didn't mention the first time the waitress went outside and yelled "You can't! We made you!" The way she moved was fucking hysterical 🤣 🤣🤣
WE MADE YOOOOU
The goblin head prop has had a storied history of its own, having changed hands several times over the years.
28:37 the price of diesel ⛽️ was $1.08 a gal 😮💨😔😂😂 must have been nice back then
I gotta admit, in the ranks of awesome horror movie deaths, "shot by a truck" is pretty high up there 😆
You guys have the single most thoughtful, sincere and hilarious podcast I have ever come across. The three of you seem like you would some of the funnest people one could ever possibly hang out with. Come to Richmond, va you would absolutely kill it here.
The 3 musketeers of retro review laughter 🤣🤣🤣
I appreciate the proper respect you showed to Stephen King
💯
👍👍👍👍
im f*cking crying at your AC/DC impression 🤣🤣🤣🤣
27:05 The infamous Green Goblin truck
I never notice John Carpenters' score from Halloween III: Season Of The Witch, in the trailer for this movie until now. Plus this is a huge guilty pleasure of mine that I love.
I knew it sounded familiar! I love Halloween 3 but I never made the connection.
@@skyofthelivingdead same here, I love Halloween 3.
I cannot BREATHE after that SK college article segment! 😂😂😂😂😂
Facts😂😂😂😂😂
Shit had me dying
There's a hilarious blacklisted film script floating around online called "maximum king" that's all about King's raging coke habit while he's filming Maximum Overdrive. Sadly, I'm sure Stephen will never sign off on it, and it will never get made.
"I'm going to scare the Hell out of you" the funniest thing I've ever seen by Stephen King.
Same.🙃😂🙃💯💯💯💯
Stephen King - The master of irony
It's the best meme
The next bad Stephen King movie you should watch is Lawnmower Man. It’s so bad that Stephen King actually wanted his name off of it. And considering all the other movies that says a lot
THIS UNIVERSE IS MINE!
I AM GOD HERE! HA!
Watching a clip of this scene is hilarious
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂💯💯😂😂😂😂
Well, to be fair that movie has nothing at all to do with the story King wrote; they jusy wanted to use his name for marketing purposes.
I saw the movie recently lol. It wasn’t too bad IMO. It was definitely cheesy in parts but a little freaky actually
I watched the TV adaption of trucks before I saw this. Both were bad in diffrent ways, but had their postives.
Christine, Duel, killdozer and death proof i found more enjoyable.
The Pentaverate is something you guys should check out mainly because of one particular unexpected cameo.
Here's a little treat for the fans of this movie.
As we speak there's a guy who is currently making a full size replica of the Green Goblin truck and takes it to truck shows
That picture of him in the beginning looks like the end result of Captain Caveman and Charles Manson's sexcapade 🤣
Wow 😳😂😂😂😂
Wait...that isn't the ending I remember. The one I remember ends with the dude being rescued by a helicopter, going to the cockpit to thank the pilot and seeing in horror that land vehicles aren't the only things being taken over. Freeze frame on his horrified face, roll credits. Was that another cut, or did they go back and do a movie that was a DIRECT adaptation of the short story Maximum Overdrive was based on?
That movie is called "Trucks", made in 1997, and based on the same short story. It is nowhere near as good as "Maximum Overdrive". :)
24:21 LMAO I would've died laughing if his pockets started smoking from all those cigerettes getting lit 🤣😂🥰😂
Considering the machines could send messages through ATMs and tickers, I wonder why they settled on Morse code at the end.
Doesn't Stephen King claim he doesn't remember writing most of IT? lol imagine not remembering one of your most famous works. Presumably that's why it's 1000+ pages long.
Yep lol when Bill Hader met him and admitted he didn't re read the book after he got the part of Richie, King told him that was find cuz he was on so much coke he doesn't remember writing it 😅
"I knew I should've gotten the turbo..."
One thing in Maximum Overdrive that didn't make any sense was cars were the only machines that didn't operate by themselves.
Times like these I do love To quote the late great Robin Williams, when he said that Cocaine was god’s way of telling you that you got too much money.
Stephen King has admitted in an interview that he doesn't know how to write black characters. He said he just doesn't have a lot of experience or relationships with black people.
That explains a lot.
Also, here’s an idea, King: Make them flawed, let them make mistakes and let them be just like everyone else.
It’s not hard
@@chasehedges6775 Or just put out a casting call for black advice. Someone might want the job of workshopping with a legendary author.
@@hope-cat4894 Interesting 💯
@@hope-cat4894 He technically did “ask a black dude”, don’t know if he learned anything though.
Korey: i mean no disrespect.
*commences with stephen pic roast for 5 mins* 😂😂😂
I really love this episode! I also love you guys' "Cokehead King" schitck, its brilliant and I love how it carries over every episode you've done about Stephen King. Classic commentary/podcast.
31:30 Martin says that King is pissed he didnt do the Hunger games but he did. Writing as Richard Bachman he wrote the story, 'The Long Walk' about a nationwide marathon walk with a 100 kids walking to the death. Totalian government and everything. A really good book and one of the very few YET to be adapted to film. So, in a way, King is like I did that already and I did it better.
14:20 wtf!?!! 😆 😆 😆 Wow. They defied not only the laws or physics but, the laws logic.
Lmao “ hide ya wife ! Hide ya cheese !! “
20:47 That's incredible of how unprecedented that is! 😆 😆 😆
Even though this isn't the height of Coked Out Stephen King...
This is definitely his peak.
4:48 Come on, now you know his pointing fingers haven't been the same since that meteor burned them! XD
This was always one of my favorites. But why did I wake up to my then 2yr old watching this and laughing hysterically every time a truck attacked??
Not since Siskel & Ebert & Ebert have I enjoyed a film review show!
11:37 is possibly the greatest impersonation of Brian Johnson ever. Had me in tears.
The only thing I remember about this movie is that Green Goblin truck LOL
“This is Stephen King, Done Right.”
- Doug Walker/Nostalgia Critic, Nostalgiaween 2014
Yes!
This movie is SUCH a guilty pleasure of mine. I love it. That teaser trailer with King in front of the "Goblin " truck is awesome.
Nobody realized that was dude from The Last Dragon who got knocked out his shoes
Eddie Arcadian
Two reasons I'm terrified of clowns:
1. John Wayne Gacy
2. Stephen King
32:34, bad editing is hilarious, some dude threw that can at his head, and they didn't even get the guy's hand out of the frame throwing it! lol
The cans hitting the baseball kids, you all's reaction reminded me of "Run Rabbit Run" from "House of 1,000 corpses"
Isn't that Hillbilly on the toilet the Wheelchair brother from the first Texas Chainsaw Massacre?
Dude slid into watermelon like GOKU.
The woman who does the voice of Lisa Simpson was in this movie.
I don't get the hate this movie gets, "One of the worst Stephen King films". It's a fun movie, hell, AC/DC is playing in the background, so you know you're going to have a good time. Let's not forget the memorable trailer, it's awesome even though it comes off as a serious horror movie instead of a fun popcorn movie. Plus they used the Halloween 3 soundtrack which was a weird choice, it should have been AC/DC. I can't believe King regrets it, "oh no I didn't know what I was doing". No no no, you knew exactly what you were doing. The opening scene with his cameo and the AC/DC music were enough to give you a clue that hey let's have some fun. You get to see Gus from Breaking Bad having fun in the arcade section. If you want a lame version, watch Trucks.
Probably because of it's reception but he really should own it as it truly is pure Stephen King in the best way possible.
@@alekesam Indeed.
In his desperation, Stan Lee made a lot of bad deals over the years.
Let's remake this with Willem Dafoe's face on the front of one of these trucks.
That would be glorious
Green Goblin Truck: “We’ll meet again Spider Man!”
That would be terrifying and amazing.
@@jwnj9716 Def
How About We Paint William Dafoe's Green Face in The Front Of Those Truck So He Can Scare The Hell Out Of Spider Man.
Here for the laughs back in the old days we would have comment. Wars over who was 1st to comment. Things have changed Stephen Kings cameos shows he is the life of the party. And yes all Stephen king black characters are racist stereotypes.
The part where he gets knocked out of his shoes had me bust out laughing at work! I love Double Toasted roast reviews. Hope they consider reviewing Just One of The Guys, Last Action Hero, No Retreat No Surrender 1, Revenge of the Ninja, and/or Sleepaway Camp 2 Happy Campers.
Saw this after watching Double Toasted's review... The films not called called Maximum Overdrive for no reason lol. Brilliant
I always wondered what would happen if Stephen King went absolutely nuts .
He’s always been nuts. This was just him really letting the crazy out
1:18 “ good lord “ 🤣🤣🤣
I loved the concept to this movie this is one movie that should be remade
Same
King's son, Joe Hill said he wants to remake it, with self driving cars taken over by a virus.
can't say nothing bad about this movie I love it......
20:57 Oh shit that was a young Giancarlo esposito! All the time i never that! Frickin Moff Gideon was in the classic Maximum Overdrive that's just awesome 😁
“And you know something? I sort of enjoyed it” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My Favorite Quote??
Bubba Hendershot: "Awwright bubba, stick this one up your home-sick!!" (Fires Rocket Launcher) BOOM!!
For the face like that he's not writing horror stories he's writing autobiography
Sliding upwards killed me.
Love this show! Why haven’t you guys done original robocop 1987 review
I know its too late to ask but you guys should do a retro review on the Dave Chappelle movie Half Baked, love to see Billy's and Martin's reaction on Nasty Nate
Stephen King could use that picture of him from the college paper as the cover of one of his books! It's just that scary. 😆
@Double Toasted He wasn't just "the random black guy" in "Maximum Overdrive". Before that, he was the random black guy...that shared a cell with Eddie Murphy in "Trading Places".
He had quite a way to go before becoming Gustavo Fring of Los Polos Hermanos
@@chasehedges6775 He's a critically acclaimed theater actor, as well. But, like you said, you gotta start somewhere.
@@chasehedges6775 I mean hell he eventually jumped across time and space to become a highly ranked officer of new Empire.
One of my favorite movies when I was a kid
Mac and Me 🤘🏻🎱🤘🏻
Look into Return of Swamp Thing.
As a boy in the 80. This movie was fawking great
I remember this movie as a kid while channel surfing one night and came upon the baseball scene with the soda machine and steamroller 😂
"I'm gonna scare the HELL outta you" LOLOL
Has anyone else noticed Corey's verbal tics? "Right here/there" "this thing"?
32:31 you can see the hand of the person who tossed the can lol
It's one of my favorite guilty pleasure movies because of one thing. ACDC makes this soundtrack
I was wondering when this was going to happen
Lol I remember they talked about this during the sleep walkers reviews! And that shit was hilarious
This is one of my favorite guilty pleasure movies. It's not even a bad movie at all it just isn't setting out to be something serious it wanted to be fun horror/action shlock and it succeeded in all the best ways. Its got that perfect amount of cheesiness and the right amount of the actors having fun so they want to show up and act and the right amount of explosions and unique kills.
Sal from Comicpop: What the fuck is the Green Goblin doing in Maximum Overdrive?
