Maybe it's because of the title that this film didn't had so much success at the box office... Imagine yourself in 1977 and a friend asking you: Hey, let's go and watch this new film "Sorcerer"... Damn, what is it about? Merlin's disciple?
@GhostFace38 you hit the nail on the head ghostface i saw the previews on tv went to see it expecting some far out jungle wizard who never appeared enjoyed it though gritty movie no special effects just harsh reality .
I remember seeing it in the theater when it came out. Haven't ever been able to find it since, but got to thinking about this film as I've been watching IRT Deadliest Roads on The History Channel.
I just bought the main truck used in this movie. Called the M211 made by GMC. It's a Military 2 1/2 Ton 'Deuce and a half" and so I just had to buy the movie to go along with it. Can't wait for the movie to get here! I bought it off of Amazon in sealed condition for $10 shipped. Bought the truck from a fellow in Tucson, AZ for $2000!
@tstaggs25 One of the truck used to sit idly in a Universal Parking lot in LA. I was there in 1983 and saw it. I was such a fan of the movie, I had to get a photo. I still have the photo. One of my favorite all time films.
If I remember correctly, this was a box office dud in 1977. But the passage of years have made this movie a lot better than what it was made out to be at the time. A closet classic.
Yeah this was released the same week Star Wars opened and it got buried, lost millions and was ignored at the time. Too bad, it was a great movie I wish someone would post the whole flic.
Very underrated movie.

@GhostFace38 also, this trailer seems like an action thriller

Try the 1953 French film wages of fear which Sorcerer is a remake. The original film is great.

This is a fantastic piece of cinema. Such a simple story but it's exciting to watch even today. Netflix has it, or you can watch it here I guess.
