(via Right Truth) Either that or Home Alone.

Police arrested three suspects belonging to a leftist militant group during a raid in Istanbul, a Turkish news agency reported. Authorities seized a remote-controlled toy car allegedly being prepared to be used in a bombing.Police also seized a list of US companies that the DHKP-C group was targeting, including Coca Cola, Pepsi and Citibank.

In the Tremors monster movie series, bloodthirsty underground monsters that are attracted by seismic vibration are dispatched by explosive remote control cars acting as lures.

After locating each approaching Graboid with their on-board seismograph, the pair steer a remote-control toy car strapped with TNT towards the target creature, which pulls down the car and gets blown up by remote detonation.

So is this the sort of diseased Hollywood culture that the West has been exporting overseas for the last few decades? Is our love for fast-moving small explosives coming back to bite us?

We’ll have to wait and see. I just hope they don’t dig up any of those Graboids.
