Review Summaries
"Machines come life and begin terrorizing and attacking people. A bunch of trucks chase a group of strangers to a gas station/cafe and keep them trapped inside. Whenever someone tries to escape or stop one of the trucks they are killed. When the trucks get low on gas, the people are forced to fill them, and an endless convoy of trucks up. Devising a plan, the survivors are able to escape through a drainage tube. They're able to make it to a boat and get away from the machines. "
