I now have all the Herbie movies bar one. But I don't know it's name.

What was the name of the movie that had the "evil" black beetle & does anyone know where I can find it??

Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.

What are the names of the one's you've got Spook, then we'll go by deduction.

There are two Love bug movies.
Horace the "hate bug" was in the second, made for tv one
I'm still looking for it on dvd too.

a few of you are correct . the movie that you are asking about was made in 1997 for TV only , and was called 'The Love Bug'
I did have a fair quality copy on video , and when we at WPVW decided to replicate 'HORACE' to race at Nowra speedway earlier this year , I gave the copy to the officials so that they could see what I was talking about .
They were kind enough to transfer it onto DVD for me . I will make enquiries as to whether the individual will make further copies . Wayne .

After all that, I just noticed that i still have it on my PVR. I guess I will have to learn how to copy to my pc and burn to dvd!!
