[first lines]
Man At Cashpoint: Honey, come on over here, sugarbuns. This machine just called me an asshole.
- Versões alternativasThere are many deleted scenes from the film that are mentioned throughout literature and seen in photo stills from the film. Stephen King has mentioned on several occasions that the film was heavily cut to avoid an X rating from the MPAA. King has also spoken of showing the uncut version to fellow horror director George Romero and was quoted as saying that it made Mr. Romero sick. The removed shots were:
- Three Seconds of Bubba Hendershot getting shot up by the military vehicle in the Dixie-Boy Truck Stop shoot out scene.
- Three seconds of the steam roller running over Bobby.
- Three seconds of the bible salesman's face falling into his lap.
- Few Seconds of the motorcyclist throwing his arms over his face, exactly shown in the film-trailer, just before plunging into the water.
- Additional seconds of Steve Gayton at Duncan's aid after getting sprayed by diesel-fuel in the eyes.
- Six seconds of the electrical cutting knife slicing off Frank's right index finger.
- Three seconds of the ill-fated video-player saying "Wooow!" just before getting zapped, as shown in the theatrical-trailer.
- Few seconds of the pop can leaving an imprint on the Coach's forehead that expands into a huge bladder on his forehead and spraying blood.
- Few seconds of the Coach's forehead-bladder popping.
- Additional seconds of the Coach warning Deke to get away just before he dies.
- Additional seconds of the steamroller riding through a nearby parking lot and Bobby's father getting squashed by it.
- A shot of a half of a chewed up body by the lawnmower in a backyard.
- An additional shot of the dead gas station attendant at the gas station.
- As Deke comes riding along on his bike, he comes to a stop. We can see a full back view of a car off in the distance on the right side of the road. As the Ice Cream Truck comes, we can still see it.
- We see a dead ice cream man in the ice cream truck.
- The Videoplayer escapes the Dixie-Boy unseen and hides in the drainage ditch
- Another guy hides in the drainage ditch.
- Additional seconds of the bible salesman getting attacked by the Videoplayer and his buddy who attempts to cut off his face with a straight razor. But the two run unseen off with his knife because the bible salesman screamed.
- A few seconds of the bible salesman's noggin pealing down revealing his blooded skull as he rises up in the drainage ditch.
- As Brad runs to a nearby car with the dead woman, we can see a full back view of a school bus on the left side of the dirt road. And when Brad screams as he is about to die from the HappyToyz truck, we can still see the bus.
- The last close-up of the Happy-Toyz truck's GreenGoblin face is re-flipped, exactly shown in the theatrical trailer, instead of the "backwords-flipped" view. There are reports of a mat-painting of a infamous American city destroyed by the machines. There are reports that in a international version, Hendershot, and truckers Harry and Frank are among the survivors; leaving only trucker Rolf and waitress Wanda June as the casualties of the sentient gun-jeep. Reports also indicate that Duncan Keller is a survivor as well. There was a rumour about a supposed uncut VHS tape having been released by Lorimar in the early '90s but this is false. The uncut version has never been released on any format, in any country. This was a false rumor started on the Internet. Only Stephen King holds the original print of the uncut version and as of 2013, has not released it in any format.

Get sick of movies with intricate plots, outstanding acting, and multiple Academy Award nominations? Then go grab Maximum Overdrive! 90 minutes of mindless truck attacks, rocket launchers and A STEAM ROLLER RUNNING OVER A LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL PLAYER!!! Now, most readers are probably thinking that this is a pretty sick review, but keep in mind that this is A MOVIE. Not real life. Even with all of this in mind, I think it is fair to say that Stephen King did a fair job with the directing. It's by no means fantastic, but it is far better done than most Cult Classic, B-flicks. Happy watching!
