Legit camera work, no CGI effects, precision driving, actual stunts, great sound track and fine acting. This movie was highly underrated! Could watch it over and over! ❤
The “wraith” car was a car industry technology demonstrator. It was supposed to demonstrate that a four cylinder turbo charged engine could deliver the same performance as a v-eight with twice the displacement. It broke 200 mph in testing.
I remember going to the theater to watch this with my then girlfriend. I wanted the car, she wanted Charlie. As of today, I don't think either of us got what we wanted.
It was the movie starring the sons/brothers of those other better known actors. (We forget back then Evelin Esteves was better known than his brother.) And they all did a great job.
@A E it’s 100% a designer car. It also has curbside appeal so immense that it transcends every car trend- to this day, it is one of the most sexy and amazing-looking vehicles ever built.
@@theholymackerel072 I wonder if the design is copyrighted? There is a company in Missouri that has a license to make Batmobiles from the campy TV series.
There's a group of people that got their hands on the original molds. As far as I understand they've made some body's and finished a couple cars but don't quote me it's been awhile since I've seen that information.
Head-on collision, both cars doing 100+, gigantic explosion, parts strewn everywhere, Vette is a burned-out shell of a car. Driver completely intact with no apparent injuries except his clothes came off and now he's dead. Gotta love 80s movies.
She was definitely a head turner back in the day. Whoever "Big Kay" is I suspect she chose the work uniform specifically for her. It was Hooters before Hooters.
80s cult movie.. drive in theaters are why these existed. Low budget movies made for teenagers and the drive in. Seen so many back in the day..Class of 84, Phantasm, Trick or Treat to name a few. Never was meant to be a big screen big award flic. Glad I have the DVD myself.
Think I was about 12 when this came out on HBO. Although I knew it was a bit cheesy, it didn't stop me from watching it over and over. Funny looking at the wraith car now and remembering how bad ass I used to think it was.
Drive in movies were never really meant to be watched but more as background noise, it was something they could charge for entry to the Backseat theater errr Drive in movie.
If his brother, Ron Howard, was involved with a film Clint always got a part in it, usually some small part but if you look he’s almost always somewhere in the film.
If you noticed in the beginning of the film, how those mysterious light collide right in the middle of a crossroad, now if your into myth and legends and lores, the crossroads has been a folklore stories of a gateway into the netherworld, it’s there you meet a being that will change your life only if you sign and consent your soul by signing a contract with your owns blood as the ink.
The car is a Dodge M4S / Turbo Interceptor : 2.2-liter Cosworth inline-four with dual Garrett turbochargers producing about 400HP or 190+ MPH depending on how one measures pucker power and only four were ever made. BUT one of the cars from the movie disappeared when production wrapped and has never been seen since... something for those with a guilty secret to think about.
I used to love this movie in the 80’s. Watching this clip just occurred to me that the Crow has similarities. Boyfriend gets murdered and comes back as something else or superhuman
It's hundreds of these types of ( come back and revenge ) movies some are good some are boring. I just like revenge movies like "Death wish" , and most of Clint Eastwood movies, modern day, "LAW abided Citizens" " V for Vandetta ". The list goes on.
I saw this movie in the theatre back in the day. Seeing this clip makes me realize i gotta watch it again from start to finish. Forgot about all the cool cars in it.
They don't make movies like this anymore live action stunts real explosions and car crashes but also tied it in with a interesting story and a cool soundtrack.
Almost 40 years later and the turbo is still one of the coolest concept cars ever created. If they mass marketed it today, it would do well. Yo, Elon. Heads up!
That’s a damn nice jacket Packard had. In the 80s EVERYTHING WAS TURBO! In the 2000s the Turbo Interceptor would be pulled over constantly for illegal tint. Cops get really jealous when your tint is as dark as theirs !
Filmed here in and around Tucson. The swimming hole scenes are Sabino Canyon. My buddy was an EMT back in high school, he knew the guys in the ambulance. The one dared the other to hit the siren as they were pulling away, wasn’t part of the script. That was up on Mt Lemmon highway.
These movies are nothing on a small screen, but seeing this at a drive in, in 1986, while the entire lot is full of cars like this, is the full effect of what drive ins were in the 80s, today's kids know nothing of the real history
Had a VHS tape as a kid. The Wraith, The Kindred. Watched them all the time. Love them both. Edit: tape 2 had The Exorcist and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Needless to say, horror movies don't bother me in the slightest. I'll never understand "screaming" while watching a movie :/
a couple years ago a Wraith fan tracked down some of the films shooting locations. he found the spot of the red Shelby crash. he thought he found the radio from it in a bush! he also found the police roadblock site. there he found a fender from one of the cruisers!
Cult favorite! I can remember watching this back in early 90s. I was in my early 20s back then. Now I am in my 50s and can honestly say I still enjoy watching this movie. They just don’t make them like this anymore
If you watched the entire movie you would understand there was an... "Other worldly" element to the show. It wasn't JUST bad effects. Although there were a lot of bad effects. Lots and lots of bad effects. Lots of bad acting and bad effects. And then there was Ron Howard's brother. Oh brother. Have you ever seen a movie where he added to the movie or show he was in? The guy makes a living 'existing' in T.V. shows and movies. A job I would love to have, but probably wouldn't do as good as Clint Howard. :)
@@OGSontar well its not hard to get to 60 when you have the back tires off the ground. not to mention that its obvious that the race was sped up to make it look like they are driving fast when they are only going about 10mph.
I've always hated the stance of the interceptor but it's definitely my favorite car. I've been putting parts together for the last couple years and am going to try my hand at an aluminum bodied interceptor with twin turbo bbc power.

Not bad for a 37 year old movie. I was a teenager when it came out.
This is probably where they got the idea for fast and furious movies. 😎🛩
Relax, the driving was nothing special, and very slow,.
@@ronarmstrong835I was 5, i remember my babysitter bringing it over to watch with us.
@@frostxr Did your years of precision stunt driving experience tell you that?
The cars, the explosions, the music, and the girls. The 80s were a great time to be alive.
I had completely forgotten about this movie. The last time I watched it was probably 1990 something. If even then.
the corvette was a manual speed car??...i saw just throggle and brake, so how could he shift down?
Fuckin right
Hell yes it was !!!
The “wraith” car was a car industry technology demonstrator. It was supposed to demonstrate that a four cylinder turbo charged engine could deliver the same performance as a v-eight with twice the displacement. It broke 200 mph in testing.
I've seen this hundreds of times. The 80s was a great time being a teenager. Still a great looking car
And a kid
Stance is way to narrow, and I was a huge fan when the movie released.
One of my favorite movies as a kid. I've watched it countless times and it never gets old. A true 80s classic.
Charlie Sheen, Nick Cassavetes, Sherilyn Fenn, and Randy Quaid. Man, what a cast.
And Clint Howard.
Randy Quaid, one of the most under rated, and greatest actors there ever was !
Loved him in Born in East L.A
Cousin Eddie
HELLO BOYS ! IM BACK✈️
Is he a brother of Denis
Before he went bat shit insane.
I remember going to the theater to watch this with my then girlfriend. I wanted the car, she wanted Charlie. As of today, I don't think either of us got what we wanted.
Your girlfriend got off lucky.
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😩 dam you and this comment!
and Charlie wanted AIDS
This movie hit Theatres??? Lol.
Randy Quaid, Clint Howard, and Charlie Sheen really made this movie great.
Great looking Sherilynn Fenn added the sexy...
To be fair Nick Cassavettes was a brilliant bad guy too. 👌
It was the movie starring the sons/brothers of those other better known actors. (We forget back then Evelin Esteves was better known than his brother.) And they all did a great job.
The turbo interceptor is still one of the coolest, most unique cars ever to be put in a movie, even by todays standards!
I agree !
There are only four built. Jay Leno has one.
@A E it’s 100% a designer car. It also has curbside appeal so immense that it transcends every car trend- to this day, it is one of the most sexy and amazing-looking vehicles ever built.

I noticed the same thing and it’s never made any sense to me. But I don’t think this movie was ever meant to be believable. 😂
Even stick shifts were a mystery back then, Corvette was going up and down Drive, and Neutral.
Flesh reacts differently when the soul is .... eaten.
The vet barely got over 60 mph floored LOL
Thats what made it just like the others. and out of this world, not possible.
Best movie ever. I love the way Charlie Sheen took out the guys who torchered him in the beginning of the movie.
This movie was ahead of its time. Between MAD MAX and The Crow.
No comments about Sherilyn Fenn?…so attractive.
She was definitely a head turner back in the day. Whoever "Big Kay" is I suspect she chose the work uniform specifically for her. It was Hooters before Hooters.
She was redonkdonk. Never afraid to get naked in front if cameras and this
movie was no exception.
The greatest sin ever was that a woman that beautiful just let herself go to crap. Looks so bad now that you can't believe it's the same person.
@@thomasdavis6839,people get old, it happens to us all.
Yes she is
Watched this movie on late 80`s, on a Betamax tape in Cuba when I was 15 years old. Still love it.
Still one of my favorite movies!👍💪🏿 Anyone noticed the rainbow in the background?😆
And the fire tornado @4:58
This feels like one of those movies I would have watched late at night as a kid when my parents thought I was sleeping...
Now I watch it late night when my kids think I'm sleeping.
i still want them all airwolf, street Hawk, Kit, the wraith, and Blue thunder.
I love the unexplained backstory of the movie.
Some really fun story prompts lead off from the cryptic hints we're been dropped.
One of Charlie Sheen's best films..
So many great childhood memories with these real movies from back in the day!!!
Own several copies of this movie. Loved it then, still love it now. 80's had some of the best classics. This being one of them.
Man I love this movie...simple, yet great idea, lots of action, and Ron Howard's creepy brother!
Remember when life was good? The music? The movies? Television? Culture? Remember? I do. And it was in the 1980s.
Me too

I like how Clint Howard just kinda shows up all over the 80s.
His hair in this movie should have won an Academy Award.
He still does. He's in Star Trek alot.
If his brother, Ron Howard, was involved with a film Clint always got a part in it, usually some small part but if you look he’s almost always somewhere in the film.
Ron’s father too 😉
Mostly in his brother's movies: Night Shift, Gung Ho, Parenthood.
I find it really creepy that Packard died naked with no wounds, like the Wraith sent his evil soul straight to hell.

8:02 "If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to fear..."
Winning!
That car was found is restored and running.
Total nonsense.
It'll be one of the most awesome barn finds in history
This was my coming of age movie. A true Classic with a brilliant Soundtrack!

@@titanuranus I love this one as well. I have learned to play the song on the guitar. :)
I love this movie and in all honesty I was glad to see that rughead was left alone and he survived
Best movie ever. I know some huge fans built the car. Those people are awesome.
I used to love this movie in the 80’s. Watching this clip just occurred to me that the Crow has similarities. Boyfriend gets murdered and comes back as something else or superhuman
As dark as "The Crow" was, I can't help it lost the full opportunity to bring what it wanted to the big screen due to Brandon Lee's death.
It's hundreds of these types of ( come back and revenge ) movies some are good some are boring. I just like revenge movies like "Death wish" , and most of Clint Eastwood movies, modern day, "LAW abided Citizens" " V for Vandetta ". The list goes on.
This is one of my top ten movies of the 80s
5:51 - "Roadblocks won't stop something that can't be stopped."
Love love love this movie!!! One of my absolute favorites of all time!! ❤❤
One of my favorites from my childhood.
I watched this movie like 6 times and it's still a great movie.....
Why was he naked after the crash LMAO. Randy Quaid and Clint Howards hair , Best comedy movie ever
Man this was my favorite movie back in my time my respect
Yes...must be 45 to understand...lol
I saw this movie in the theatre back in the day. Seeing this clip makes me realize i gotta watch it again from start to finish. Forgot about all the cool cars in it.
GREAT movie that was filmed in TUCSON, AZ. REALLY DO LOVE AND MISS THAT CITY.
Tento film jsem viděl prvně na VHS ,kterou jsem dostal k narozeninám. Nikdy nezapomenu.
Ah I miss the 80’s sooo much! Thanks for posting!
You're welcome, glad you dig it!
If a car leaves me in a race goes down and comes back to lap me I’m quitting racing 😂
They don't make movies like this anymore live action stunts real explosions and car crashes but also tied it in with a interesting story and a cool soundtrack.
I love that bit at the 2.30 mark where he's clearly just toying with Packard.
one of my favorite movies as a kid...so beyond its time!!
Charlie Sheen's line after he kills Packard,
"WINNING!"
...end credits.
Almost 40 years later and the turbo is still one of the coolest concept cars ever created. If they mass marketed it today, it would do well. Yo, Elon. Heads up!
Not sure, it costed more than a Veyron.
The eighties was the best time ever for movie's and music
That’s a damn nice jacket Packard had. In the 80s EVERYTHING WAS TURBO! In the 2000s the Turbo Interceptor would be pulled over constantly for illegal tint. Cops get really jealous when your tint is as dark as theirs !
Damn I remember this movie from the 80s' That car was awesome.
What’s clear is that Clint Howard is a gift to mankind.
The turbo interceptor is and will always be the car
But "The Car" is also the car! (Lincoln Continental Mark III)
Clint Howard, what a goofball he was!!! Amazing he got any rolls in TV or movies!! Thank God for brother n dad!!!!
Filmed here in and around Tucson. The swimming hole scenes are Sabino Canyon. My buddy was an EMT back in high school, he knew the guys in the ambulance. The one dared the other to hit the siren as they were pulling away, wasn’t part of the script. That was up on Mt Lemmon highway.
One of my very favorite '80s movies it sure was cool being a kid in the '80s
I love this film and very under appreciated as not many ppl know of it.
Overall, it was an awesome movie.great soundtrack great stunts awesome cars.
These movies are nothing on a small screen, but seeing this at a drive in, in 1986, while the entire lot is full of cars like this, is the full effect of what drive ins were in the 80s, today's kids know nothing of the real history
I will admit that I have never seen that movie 🎥, but if given the chance to see it, it will be a blast to watch
Man I miss the 80s...
Had a VHS tape as a kid.
The Wraith, The Kindred.
Watched them all the time. Love them both.
Edit: tape 2 had The Exorcist and A Nightmare on Elm Street.
Needless to say, horror movies don't bother me in the slightest.
I'll never understand "screaming" while watching a movie :/
The Sheriff is right. You can't stop something that CAN'T be stopped!
if you've done nothing wrong,you've nothing to fear!! awesome tagline
I love how the car carrier never pulls over for the cops, and then just keeps on driving even after being hit. 🤣🤣
Even though Clint Howard isnt as famous as Ron, some of his roles are just as iconic.
Loved this movie as a kid!
Świetny film ponad czasowy już takich nie kręcą . Pierwszy raz oglądałem w 1988r na vhs wymienionej na inną w rynku Rzeszów.
This came on every summer when I was a kid me my brother cousins n friends would all watch it every year 🔥🔥🔥
Dodge needs to remake the interceptor as an EV or plugin Hybrid. It would ROCK!!
Charlie Sheen is a legend!
That Turbo was just toying with the Vette here
a couple years ago a Wraith fan tracked down some of the films shooting locations. he found the spot of the red Shelby crash. he thought he found the radio from it in a bush! he also found the police roadblock site. there he found a fender from one of the cruisers!
I still remember this movie, I was 10 years old...👌🏽
Absolutely loved this movie watched it heaps of times
Cult favorite! I can remember watching this back in early 90s. I was in my early 20s back then. Now I am in my 50s and can honestly say I still enjoy watching this movie. They just don’t make them like this anymore
Head on 200mph crash, insuing fireball not a scratch bar loosing his shirt and pants, didn't even have helmet hair 🤣🤣🤣
🤣😅😂
😂😂😂😂😩

He un-equipped all his items because if he dies with them equipped his loot can be picked up by anyone.
Clearly you didn't look at the speedometer 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome underrated 80's classic movie. Thanks for the clip/post....
You're welcome!
Good question, if you were killed and you got a chance to go back and have your vengeance would you take it?
I'd forgotten about this movie. Watching this clip reminded me why.
That Corvette was one of the Corvette Summer cars.
I remember watching this as a kid...with my parents....and the love scene comes on...👀
Other than that, I love the car chase/race scenes 💕
I know I watched this movie as a kid but I can’t remember anything about it. I must watch this again.
So when the Wraith gets you, your left with no clothes? Diabolical.
This was one of my favorite movies 💪💪
there is nothing like power shifting an automatic during a race.
And full throttle at the mind-bending speed of...60 mph.
@@OGSontar well its not hard to get to 60 when you have the back tires off the ground. not to mention that its obvious that the race was sped up to make it look like they are driving fast when they are only going about 10mph.

When a dude bro shows up to race in a Stingray with not one, but _three_ hood air vents, you know there’s trouble a-brewin’
three hood vents, meh . . . check out the Vette from Corvette Summer :)
C trabalhar4c.
So many movies on tv that I watched in the 80s. Think I first watched this one when I got home from church. Good ol days
Your film is the best in the world 🌎🌎
A movie made legendary because it was on a seemingly endless loop on old cable TV.
Wow what a movie what a decade!
This was shot in Tucson Arizona
8:02 "If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to fear..." Charlie Sheen might be BLEEPED!
The actor that plays Packard directed "The Notebook"....mind blown.
Like Demons, the Wraith also has a surprisingly big name soundtrack
I miss when movies where just awesome!!!
Clint Howards hair is epic !
Must be the best car movie ever made
That Greenwood is no match for a Turbo Interceptor, the only one like it in existence. :)
They kept showing the speedometer like the speed would be impressive but it looks like he never went over 55 on a speedometer that only went to 70.
That was the tachometer they kept showing.
