rjluna2 ◊ 2010-06-25 16:08	@Edit: I found in IMDB... Shelly Hack was the actress involved in this made for TV movie...
rjluna2 ◊ 2010-06-25 22:06	As I recalled at the movie, the victim did went to defensive driving class and taught her to use emergency handbrake to veer out of the trouble from the menacing looking van...
an_unusual_eye ◊ 2010-06-25 22:54	did she live..? and (as an afterthought), did the actress live too..?
rjluna2 ◊ 2010-06-25 22:56	I believe she did, but I don't remember. That was long time ago...
an_unusual_eye ◊ 2010-10-02 07:25	o.k. ~ so ~ i just finished watching my "new" DVD dubbed from a vintage VHS copy of this movie. this film is truly a crazy time capsule for cars of the 1970s, all wrapped up in some of the worst continuity errors ever caught on camera. as for the reporter's 240z.... this final climactic scene ~ the one in which the most damage is inflicted ~ is the only scene in which the reporter's z is a 1973 model. throughout the rest of the film, the car is a 1972 model that can be found here: /vehicle_338417-Datsun-240z-S30-1972.html the reporter did live... the z..? a bit worse for wear.
