Movie Premiere: Demon on Wheels [Video]

By Steel Trap on August 3, 2015

Watershed Films presents the world premiere of Demon on Wheels, an independent documentary film about a man, his woman and the car that comes between them.

A former speed demon and rum runner, now an aging mechanic in an impoverished Catskill Mountains town, risks it all — his health, his security, even the love of his life — when he vows to restore and race the prized car of his wild youth, a 1968 Ford Mustang that’s been hidden away for 35 years. Now a self-described “old man in an old car,” Mike Ondish wants to chase racing glory one last time, hoping to rekindle the spark in his relationship, and rediscover the thrill of a fast car and the wide-open road. But will his quest to restore the car restore him, or will a love triangle between himself, his girlfriend Martha and the Demon lead him to crash and burn?

Featuring interviews with the legendary Carroll Shelby and Ford’s chief Mustang enthusiast, John Clor, this hot rod documentary’s world premiere is fittingly showing exclusively at the all-new Cinema Detroit, August 7-14. TICKETS NOW ON SALE HERE!
