John Carpenter's Christine continues our House of Carpenter series with a 1958 Plymouth Fury that loves her owner a little too much. Adapted from Stephen King's novel and released the same year, the 1983 film follows Keith Gordon as Arnie Cunningham, a bullied teenager whose rusted beauty starts rebuilding herself and running down anyone who gets in her way. Expect a chilling synth score, a jaw-dropping practical regeneration effect, and Harry Dean Stanton on the case. Join Darren, Tristan, and John as they pull into the drive-in.
