When a rogue comet passes Earth, every machine with a motor awakens with a thirst for blood. A small group of strangers trapped at a remote truck stop must outwit their own vehicles and the deadly appliances around them. As the mechanical uprising escalates, paranoia and survival instinct clash in a relentless fight for human existence. Stephen King’s directorial debut delivers a nightmarish blend of creature-feature terror and apocalyptic dread, where the only question is who—or what—will survive the night.
