This was a LOT more entertaining than it had any right to be! I really enjoyed it!
Maximum Overdrive blended with Jaws! Some great car chase/stunts and a good cast of characters, some you root for and some you can’t wait to see under the wheels of the ‘wheelie’ rotten antagonist.
Super Hybrid
Most cars run on fuel. This one runs on blood.

Overview
Late one night, a mysterious car is brought into the Chicago police impound garage after a deadly traffic accident. The on-call mechanics soon discover the car has a mind of its own. With hundreds of horsepower and two tons of reinforced steel at its command, it's a seemingly unstoppable killing machine capable of outrunning -- and outwitting -- humans.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A locked-room horror film where the threat is a sentient, predatory vehicle trapping people in an enclosed garage. It plays the premise straight, building tension through the claustrophobia of containment and the inexplicable malevolence of a mechanical thing that should not be alive.
