shareEarlier in the film, Ben told Straker he needed to get that door fixed.
shareYou must have some Director's cut version stones because I can't recall that line.

You don't miss a thing do you bregund?
shareWas it the universe's way of telling Ben that there was something badly wrong in the town?
shareI think it was Tobe Hooper's way of telling Ben that there was something badly wrong in that town.
shareI wonder when Ben would have his Sherlock Holmes 'A-ha' moment, as in:
'The door of my jeep hasn't been working properly since I came back to this small town.'
Thinks for a moment... then strokes his chin wisely.
'A-ha! I got it! There is something terribly wrong in this small town... in fact, against all the odds, there might soon be an infestation of vampires here...'
Pays his bill at Eva's and drives off into the sunrise, and - heaven's above - his jeep door is working once again.
All is right with the world once again - Well, with Ben Mears world, anyway.
He writes a bestseller, and later wins a Pulitzer - and never looks back.
Kind of a dull screenplay, though.
Cheers for now.
TBH, I think it was an actual blooper that Hooper let stay, or am I getting confused?
shareIt was a blooper Stones. I've decided rather than to judge some people's insanity, I now embrace them for the love of humanity and the common good.
shareI don't recall Ben ever mentioning to Straker about his jeep door! Did that actually happen, I mean does anyone else recall the scene?
Cheers for now,
I don't recall Ben ever mentioning to Straker about his jeep door! Did that actually happen, I mean does anyone else recall the scene?I just watched the film and I was especially watching for that when Ben was in the antique shop. Sorry stones; I did not see it.
The gag's up...I tried to be cute, no scene exists:(
shareI noticed a latch on the door inside behind Ben's head. It's supposed to turn down and connect with the door. On the passenger side with Dr. Norton, it's turned down, showing that's it's latched tightly. I think it's automatically supposed to do that when the door is closed but wouldn't on the driver's side.
shareYea the following year, there was a recall of all those jeeps because of the problems with the doors
