TV budget but better story, plus the Dark Herbie (actually Horace) and Alexandra Wentworth
Herbie is apprehended by a new owner (Bruce Campbell) who is surprised that the unintimidating Volkswagen can win races and do amazing things. A malevolent rival (John Hannah), who initially mocked Herbie, now wants it and therefore hatches a scheme to use Herbies creator (Harold Gould) to create a new version of the magical car, but the results arent chippy. Kevin J. O'Connor plays the mechanic, Alexandra Wentworth a racing judge and Dana Gould the villains associate.
"The Love Bug" (1997) is the fourth sequel to the original 1969 film and the fifth entry overall. Its limited by a TV budget, which can mostly be observed in the studio...
