Send us a textEver wondered why John Carpenter’s adaptation of Stephen King’s Christine has more popularity now than it did at its release in 1983? Join us as we plunge headfirst into an introspective journey of this cinematic masterpiece, analyzing its timing, extraordinary casting and innovative filmography that brought a terrifying Plymouth Fury to life. What makes a car frightful? John Carpenter certainly knew! As we dissect scene by scene of this horror classic, we'll talk about how Carpenter's ingenious use of a 1958 Plymouth Fury, the vivid characterization of Arnie, and the omission of the ghost of the previous car owner, turned a seemingly harmless inanimate object into a nightmarish entity. We'll also discuss the remarkable performances of Keith Gordon, William Ostrander and others, and how they brought Stephen King's vision alive. Finally, we'll wrap up our conversation by discussing the phenomenal stunt work in the movie, especially the heart-stopping scene where Terry Leonard is engulfed in flames while inside the car. We'll also be comparing the novel and the movie, and debating if King's books-turned-movies truly live up to his vision. Tune in and join the conversation as we acknowledge the impactful legacy of Christine on the horror genre and the cinematic brilliance of John Carpenter.
