Considering the movie was called "The Cars that eat People" my wife and I was expecting somebody to get chowed down on by a car. After all, the cover certainly had a picture of just that happening, but we didn't get the horror film we were expecting. We got some kind of drama about a self-styled 'frontier' town where half the population have sticks stuck up their butts, and the other half build and drive really bizarre cars.
Considering that it took nearly an hour before something exciting finally happened, it was definitely a good thing that my wife and I are well versed in the MST3K method of movie watching. The saddest part was that the piano player (Look at me! I can play the same 2 bars over and over and over) didn't get eaten by one of the cars. If anyone needed to be eaten by a car, it was her.
The spiky beetle was totally cool looking. Too bad it got stuck in this movie. As the most talented member of the cast, it really deserved something better.
