Monster Trucks [3D]
Two different worlds. One monster team. Looking for any way to get away from the life and town he was born into, Tripp, a high school senior, starts restoring an old pickup truck from bits and pieces of old cars. After an accident at a nearby oil-drilling site displaces a strange and subterranean creature with a taste and a talent for speed, Tripp finds that he may not actually need that V-8 he had lined up—his monster friend, Creech (short for “creature”) will power the truck!
