Quicksilver Highway is a 1997 made for television comedy horror anthology film directed by Mick Garris.

Creative Artists Agency met with Garris about him writing the pilot script for a possible horror television series directed by John McTiernan and produced by his wife, Donna Dubrow.

[2] Just after Brandon Tartikoff signed on as producer, Garris pitched the idea to staff at the American Broadcasting Company; the heads of the network weren't interested as they didn't want any horror material in their broadcast schedule, but a couple of the network's executives like Greer Shephard got on board.

[2] After writing a pilot script based on Stephen King's short story "Chattery Teeth," Garris pitched the series to Fox.

[4] Steve Johnson handled the chattery teeth effects, while Flash Film Works and Bill Mesa was responsible for the moving hands.
