  Anyone seen that movie with Patrick Swayzee I think,  there is a scene with a blue z roc and some other bad guys that are trying to stop the truck, then near the end of the movie there is a truck chase scene where a semi tractor fries his breaks down a mountain pass hill, sort of a cool chase scene, what is the name of that movie?      Also just watch Smokey and the Bandit again, that had a lot of truck scenes in it.


Why would you want anything else?  Just give me a Charger and I'll be happy.

Black Dog is the name of the movie. It has its "no way that could happen" momments, but it still rocks! It is my 2nd all time fav movie. Rock guy Meat Loaf is the bad guy in the movie and plays his role really good.

Ive done a bunch searches but can never seem to come up with anything on the original KW that was used in the first Smokey and the Bandit. Anyone ever find anything on that truck?

I watched this the other night, Jackie Gleason is so friggin' funny the stuff he says and the way he says it.     "I'm in a high speed pursuit, through four states, chasing a maniac. . . etc. etc."   while he shoves that young cop backwards in the chest with his finger.

                Scroll down this Smokey and the Bandit page and at the bottom it has a link to play a line from Sherrif Bueford T. Justice from the movie.

Just watched Smokey and the Bandit again tonight on AMC. Anyone ever see the movie Blacktop with meatloaf and that hot chick with the dark hair, cant remember her name. Has a nice black 359 in it. Pretty good acting by meatloaf, he plays a wack job that kidnaps the girl and her boyfriend chases him in an edsel.
