Super Hybrid Trailers

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.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Seems reviewers here missed the point or simply do not really get the horror genre, its eclectic mix of thresholds, how it can transform quickly and how it is not just about Brad Pitt killing zombies.True horror movies take what we view as ordinary, run-of-the-mill, and take that to a place, usually a dark place, and present something totally unexpected.Here is a movie that does just that. Believe me, when you see how this movie goes, you will be glad you sat down to watch it. Here we have a killer sentient car, able to transform into other car models (wow...what a paint job!) at will, and tempts people to sit inside - to consume their flesh. Following an accident, the battered car is towed into a Chicago police impound garage. For the employees trapped inside, it is a fight for survival against a malicious being...The car from hell idea is no newbie to the horror genre but what this film does with the idea - sure is folks! I am not adding spoilers here.I love horror movies where the evil transcends from the usual: the serial killer, the thing in the lake, the alien beings, the possession... That's all been there, done that, and few films manage to bring something new with those premises. So, when I read about a killer car morphing into other car shapes and outwitting humans - I just had to see it. Last time I saw a killer car idea as good as this one was actually called The Car, a 70s horror movie.The simple premises are always the best ones in this genre. This one goes into overdrive and pits steel against bone in 90 mins of pure thrill time.

I haven't seen a movie about a killing "car" since Christine and I liked this movie from the first moment. Especially that black car from the beginning. The acting was mostly good. I just can't imagine anyone smiling and acting like he's the greatest, when anyone around him dies. The story was kind of funny, sometimes. I highly doubt, that it was intended this way. Nevertheless it was very entertaining and I don't really care about how it was meant to be, as long as I enjoy watching it.There were a few things I didn't like, like some references to other movies. Once they speak about transforming robot cars and then about hunting the car like x-men. That's quite unimaginative and those references weren't even funny. They just seemed out of place.After about one hour the movie started getting more exciting and there were even some interesting turns and events. The end was quite a surprise. I'd recommend the movie to anyone, who is bored from watching the same used up story lines, since the whole concept of "Super Hybrid" is rather unconventional. 8/10

Well, I must say the movie is better than some of the reviews here make it out to be. There are way more stupid "horror" films out there. The first 30 minutes were intriguing, that is up to the point that the guys still have no idea what they are dealing with. From there on, it turns into a "creature feature" movie with the car emitting some freaky noise. (Why didn't it do that before it was known what it actually was?) It was rather fun to watch how they went about hunting the "car" or to be more exact, how the car went about hunting them!Here's how it feels to watch this. You all know those movies where a killer in a car is chasing a victim in the dark to run him over. Well, that's exactly what you will get here from the beginning to the end, except that there's no killer.The movie could've been a lot better if the makers decided to crush some nice sports car like the red one in the beginning, but, due to its being low-budget, all the cars are old and uninteresting. Wouldn't the creature be able to chase his food if it was a fast Ferrari? The design of the creature was awful. They could've done better. The most annoying character in the movie was Ray (the boss). He made the movie a pain to sit through and I think he shouldn't have survived. The "nicer" guy should have, like it's the norm in movies. There's nothing scary about this movie and since it doesn't look professional at all, it gets boring after 60 minutes. It would've made the movie a lot more interesting if they didn't limit the scenes to the garage and took it out on the street and even better if the police or the military got involved, but you know explosion scenes would require a lot of budget, that which this movie lacked. One thing is for sure. This is not a movie that anyone would watch more than once. It's not great but it's not bad either. It definitely deserves a 5. Actually, it was way more entertaining than most "good, professional" movies available out there.

Synopsis a car prowls the streets of Chicago hunting humans when it gets smashed up in a collision with another car. It is towed to the 29th district garage where the staff quickly realise the car is alive and it is hunting them all down.This film is really not very good. The basic idea may work on paper but it is basically stupid. Anyone with any training in biology may have to be restrained from attacking the screen when they hear the rubbish theories by the characters when they are trying to figure out what the car is. Maybe that was actually a subtle joke about poor educational standards.The film is fairly tedious with lots of running around and driving cars about in the garage. The killings are fairly tame and bloodless and most came about from script induced acts of stupidity.The padding is quite obvious when the car, which can change to look like any car, keeps doing this even when no-one comes near it to see it. I didn't really care about the characters. Oded Fehr's character Ray is so incredibly stupid and he's written that way to ensure that a weak idea for 30 minute short is padded out into a full length feature film. The main protagonist Tilda, played by Shannon Beckner, also annoyed me a lot. The actors are okay but they are poorly written.CGI plays a big part in this film but it really lacks credibility or imagination and instead looks like just another bland spectacle more suited to a derivative first-person-shooter game.I don't really now who this would appeal to because it really didn't appeal to me.rating 3/10
