Title: Super Truck movie from the 80s
Post by: urangatan on March 07, 2009, 02:31:28 AM
Hi there

I'm looking for the name of a movie I saw as a kid with some souped up trucks.

I think its an 80s movie. It features (i think) a team of people that have some special trucks to fight crime.

In one scene a truck is surrounded by bad guys and the truck has a turret mounted machine gun ontop of the cab and is shooting back. However a baddie (I think its a woman) manages to inject gas into the cab of the truck, forcing the occupants out who I think get shot.

I cant remember much else, would love to find this movie!

The Highwayman might be a possibility. It was a tv movie about a super rig that had a lot of high tech weapons.

This might be the TV movie "Time Bomb" from 1984. That definitely has a female villain.

Time bomb is a definite possibility too. Here is a clip of the truck in action in that one.

Darksider, I do remember Jacko being in the show. I just kept thinking of his wacky energizer commercials whenever he was on the show. heh...
