Though many ill-informed "film professors" credit . . .

. . . MY MOTHER THE CAR for pioneering what's become a fright fest staple--the menacing vehicle horror movie, which includes such classics as WHITE LINE FEVER, CHRISTINE and all seven films in the WRONG TURN franchise, the ACTUAL forerunner of this genre is DONALD'S TIRE TROUBLE. During this animated short, Don Duck is first seen driving a sports car much too fast on a winding mountain road. Soon his right front tire blows out. It quickly becomes clear that his tire jack, tire, inner tube and rim have become demonically possessed, leaving an initially angry and increasing frightened duck in a spot of trouble miles from Civilization. At least he's not driving "a 1926 Porter!"
