Okay; it's not just here, it's all over movies, comics, etc.

The horrors were, before they did what they did. basically human, yes.

And the truck looks mostly like a truck in our world.

But why would people in another world entirely have developed a set of driving controls that Theresa could use? I mean, what we have is not the most efficient way of doing things - it's just what has evolved over time.

But that's not the most annoying thing that some authors do - they create a completely alien world, where the people, no matter how human they are, are not gonna be speaking English ...

And then the characters make English-based word play.

An example i just hit yesterday: A somewhat important family in a feudal society is named "Mindrear".

Someone from a house they're not quite feuding with calls one of them "Mind rear".

English play on words - made by someone who could not possibly be speaking English.
