After the four short seasons of Knight Rider ended in 1986, fans could not get enough. In 1991, Knight Rider 2000 served as a sequel the television series by NBC. With a hefty budget of $65 million, the creation was made as a pilot to spawn off a new series, but the idea was canned, despite handsome ratings.

The movie takes place in the future (the year 2000) where stun guns are the only means of protection allowed by law enforcement. The Knight Industries Two Thousand gets a makeover as the “Knight 400”. The movie received mediocre reviews.
