Starring Keith Gordon, John Stockwell, Alexandra Paul

A high-school nerd’s (Keith Gordon) possessive and possessed 1958 Plymouth Fury unleashes its jealousy in a diabolical killing rampage in this sleek horror joyride from genre master John Carpenter. Blending 1950s Americana (the vehicle’s preferred soundtrack to murder is vintage rock ’n’ roll), car fetishism, and hair-raising atmospherics into a smart and stylish pop confection, CHRISTINE stands as one of the all-time greatest Stephen King adaptations.
