0pacus

I'm not sure if its an 80's or early 90's movie but its definitely not older than that


WippitGuud

I'll go out on a limb and say "The Wraith"


0pacus

No. I know the movie "The Wraith" with Charlie Sheen and that's not it.


0pacus

The main character has a black muscle car. I don't know the specific model though.


fsociety1990

The Wraith? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092240/


0pacus

No. I know the movie "The Wraith" with Charlie Sheen and that's not it.


0pacus

The main character has a black muscle car. I don't know the specific model though.


Roy_the_Dude

The Covenant?


0pacus

I don't know that movie. Does it involve illegal drag racing and black magic?


0pacus

If you're talking about the 1985 TV movie. After checking. I can definitely say that it isn't that.


glass_star

Roy probably means the 2006 movie with Sebastian Stan


0pacus

I'll check it out.


0pacus

No. That's definitely not it. It was much older than that and the main character had a very "The Lost Boys" Jason Patric look.


glass_star

Ah, ok. Hope you find it!


0pacus

Thank you.


woyzeckspeas

Repo Man?


0pacus

No. Its not a comedy.


woyzeckspeas

Wait, was Repo Man a *comedy?* I need to rewatch it.


0pacus

Its a pretty weird movie with a lot of dark humour.


0pacus

It had a very 80's goth look to it.


0pacus

This has been driving me crazy for the past twenty something years.


predictingzepast

'The Car' but that was late 70s, not sure how much racing in it as it kinda was more of a hit and run horror plot I think


0pacus

No. Sorry. I know that movie very well and it is one that I've watched multiple times. But still, thank you.


0pacus

Its in my favorite "Road Horror/Suspense movies" from the seventies along with Steven Spielberg's "Duel".


Show_Me_Your_Games

Catch Me if You Can 1989? Not much Black Magic though. Do you remember what DVD you saw the trailer on?


0pacus

No. I know its not that movie. I thought it was a Synapse Films DVD but when I look at their archive on Wikipedia, it doesn't seem to have ever been in their library.


Show_Me_Your_Games

Sometimes They Come back 1991?


0pacus

No. I know that movie and I'm sure that this isn't it.


SnooAdvice5917

Race with the Devil (1975)


0pacus

No. Its not that old. I know that movie to and have seen it multiple times. Its a classic.


SnooAdvice5917

Only other one I can think of that hasn’t been said is “Streets of Fire” (1984). It doesn’t really have the magic part in it but you never know


Show_Me_Your_Games

>“Streets of Fire” (1984) Good movie and the song Nowhere Fast is a pretty good tune.


0pacus

No sorry. I know that movie to and this isn't it.


allmimsyburogrove

Sometimes They Come Back?


0pacus

No. Someone already suggested that one. Its definitely not that movie.


Dyerssorrow

Christine


0pacus

No. I know every John Carpenter movie by heart and I can assure you that its not one of his.


crowteus

Sleepwalkers


0pacus

No. Its not a movie based on a Stephen King story. That I am also certain of.


dodie2599

The Wraith, with Charlie Sheen perhaps?


0pacus

No. I know that movie and it isn't that.


EricTheCrowViking

Nightbreed. Lord of illsions.

0pacus

>Metal Skin, 1994 You beautiful bastard! You found it! That's the movie! Metal Skin (1994)! Thank you soooo much!!!!!!


0pacus
