Black Cadillac (2003)

Memorable, crazy movie

hyped garbage

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Blistering performances.

I find DVD for very cheap, it was so cheap, I not even going to tell you the price.I thought this would be really bad, it wasn't at all, it was decent movie. First twenty minutes of the movie was really entertaining and there few fights scenes in this movie, which I thought was really good. As the rest of the movie kind of dragged on little, there Friends are on a road trip.Who end up getting chased by some other person in the car, which make them fall out with each other.The rest of the movie is very predicable and the ending was so bad it was actually very funnyI thought acting was really good from the whole cast

Black Cadillac is about three young men driving around on an empty road having angered the patrons at the road house. Naturally when they're chased by an ominous black Cadillac they don't know what's going on. To add to their problems they run into a stranded cop who might not be who he seems.Naturally the film's quite spooky, although mostly we're watching these people drive while knowing what they know, which is nothing or at least very little.While this movie proves reasonably entertaining, it falls short of being anything special.

I honestly don't understand how any human being can possibly enjoy this movie! This is absolutely one of the worst written, acted, and directed movies I have ever seen. There was no real characterization of the characters besides the clearly spelled out, stereotypical, after school special monologues each of the main characters gave at their respected time. And how "Bad-ass" the character with a scar on his face was, you could truly feel his pain and torment.. sorry i couldn't hardly say that last sentence with a straight face. It was all horrible. The entire story was incredibly cheesy and predictable. Watching it with my friends, we were able to predict every single "suspenseful" moment that happened in the whole thing. This is one of those kinds of movies that make me horribly angry at the entire system of Hollywood. I can't understand how this movie is made when i hear about how hard Quentin Tarantino had to work to get Reservior Dogs made. I can't believe that movie producers read this script, along with countless others and say, "Yeah, I think this movie will be great. I'll invest multiple millions of dollars into this piece of non-garbage and it'll make a ton because people will love it!" And the worst part is, from reading other posts and the over 5 star rating on IMDb, that people actually did like this piece of predictable, horrible, cheesy, dumb trash. It's really sad when you can say truthfully that you think Randy Quaid was the best actor in a movie.

In a rural area of the upper Midwest three youthful dudes leave a rowdy bar on a cold, snowy night. Soon, they notice a car following them. It turns out to be a big, black Cadillac that just will not leave them alone.Huge amounts of dialogue, annoyingly shallow characters, and manipulative music characterize this low-budget horror flick from writer/director John Murlowski. Aside from the characters, another and even more serious problem with the film is the plot. Whoever is driving that Cadillac could take action against the kids at any time. Instead, the driver teases, torments, provokes, harasses the three kids, and in general prolongs the ordeal. Why? Because without the teasing and the harassment, you don't have a full-length feature film. The film's plot is thus ... contrived.Further, this is another one of those films wherein automobiles undergo horrendous physical torture, like in one scene of this film where the car careens off a high embankment. But then the car still runs. Wish I could find a car that durable.The film's cinematography is acceptable, if not exceptional. The visuals are dark. Some of the scenes involve rear screen projection, and a "camera shaker" for effect.To its credit, the film does have a Twilight Zone feel to it. The story takes place entirely at night, and with a general absence of other people, once we leave the bar sequence. Hence, the darkness and the sense of aloneness out on the open road does indeed foster some tension and suspense. But the story's resolution is ultimately disappointing."Black Cadillac" probably will appeal to younger audiences who may see in it some element of horror. But aside from the suspense derived from the dark and eerie atmosphere, I found the story to be hokey, the characters irritating, and the dialogue too talky, for the film to be satisfying.
