The Old Banger(1970)

The Old Banger is a darkly comedic film about a couple who attempt to dispose of their worthless car at a scrapyard, only to have it mysteriously reappear on streets drawing ever closer to their home. What begins as a simple act of abandonment becomes an unsettling obsession as the couple finds themselves haunted by their old vehicle, unable to escape its presence no matter how far they drive it away. The film blends mundane frustration with creeping dread, turning an ordinary problem into something far more sinister. As the car's appearances grow more frequent and proximity more alarming, the couple must confront what their inability to let go truly means. The Old Banger explores themes of attachment and consequence through a premise that's both absurd and genuinely unnerving.
