Black Dog
Ah, the days of playing with "big rig" Tonka trucks, dump trucks, cranes, and other metal beasts of burden as a kid. Black Dog may be heinously stupid (Patrick Swayze, fresh out of jail, opts to earn $10,000 to run guns for Meat Loaf), but boy do the memories of crashing those Tonkas through a pile of Hot Wheels come back. No, there's nothing at all of interest here besides some incredible 80,000-pound trucks that jackknife, fall off of cliffs, and explode... but isn't that enough?
