Description of this Christine Film Poster
Christine is a 1983 American supernatural horror film directed by John Carpenter and starring Keith Gordon, John Stockwell, Alexandra Paul, Robert Prosky and Harry Dean Stanton. The film also features supporting roles from Roberts Blossom and Kelly Preston.
Written by Bill Phillips and based on the 1983 novel of the same name by Stephen King, the film follows the changes in the lives of Arnie Cunningham, his friends, his family and his teenage enemies after the purchase of a Plymouth Classic red and white 1958 Fury (for $250) named Christine, registration CQB 241, a car that seems to have a mind of its own and a jealous, possessive personality, which is a bad influence on Arnie.
Released in the United States on December 9, 1983, Christine received generally positive reviews and grossed $21 million at the box office. The film has since become a cult classic. A remake from Sony Pictures and Blumhouse is in development.
A red and white 1958 Plymouth Fury is built on the assembly line. The car injures a worker by slamming the hood on his hand; another worker sits in the driver's seat and throws cigar ashes on the upholstery; he was later found dead. Twenty years later, Arnold "Arnie" Cunningham, a nerdy teenager, purchased the now-decrepit Fury, over the objections of his friend Dennis Guilder. At school, Arnie is bullied by Buddy Repperton and his gang, and Buddy is expelled after threatening Arnie with a switchblade. Defying his parents, Arnie begins restoring the Fury (named "Christine" by its previous owner) in a garage/junkyard owned by Will Darnell. Arnie's appearance and personality begin to change as he works; he loses his glasses, dresses better and develops an air of arrogance. His obsession with Christine strains his relationship with his parents and his friendship with Dennis.
Dennis learns from the seller that the Fury's previous owner was also obsessed with Christine, that his daughter suffocated in the car, and that he and his wife both committed suicide on board. An attractive new student, Leigh Cabot, attends one of Dennis' football games with Arnie; Dennis sees them together and notices that Christine is now fully recovered. Distracted, he suffers a serious injury that lands him in the hospital and ends his high school football career. Arnie and Leigh begin a relationship, but Leigh feels uncomfortable when she sits in Christine's seat and they watch a movie at the drive-in. The car radio turns on itself as Leigh begins to choke on her food, and Arnie finds the doors locked. Arnie finds the doors locked. Leigh eventually frees himself and another client saves his life by administering the Heimlich maneuver.
Buddy and his gang vandalize Christine in retaliation for Buddy's eviction. Arnie is so distraught that he breaks up with Leigh when she tries to console him. When he brings Christine back to the garage, he is surprised to see her gradually and completely repaired. That evening, Christine chases down a member of Buddy's gang and kills him, then repairs herself again. Police Detective Rudy Junkins questions Arnie about the death, but lets him go once Arnie provides an alibi. Later, Christine goes after the rest of the gang, killing two members at a gas station and then killing Buddy. The car, badly damaged, returned by itself to Darnell's garage. When he sits in the driver's seat, Christine kills him by pushing him forward and crushing him against the steering wheel. When the police find the body, Christine is able to function again. Junkins questions Arnie again, who becomes angry and gives an alibi.
Leigh enlists Dennis' help to destroy Christine and save Arnie. They plan to lure Christine into the garage and destroy it with a bulldozer, but Christine surprises them by emerging from a pile of scrap metal. Leigh flees while Dennis confronts Christine, now led by Arnie; while attempting to run over Leigh, Christine crashes into Darnell's desk and Arnie is thrown through the windshield, fatally impaling himself on the broken glass. Christine continues to attack, repairing herself faster than before, until Dennis and Leigh crush her with the bulldozer.
The next day, Dennis, Leigh and Junkins witness Christine's remains being crushed at the scrapyard. Junkins congratulates the teens for stopping Christine, but they regret not being able to save Arnie. The sound of a 1950s rock and roll song frightens them, but it turns out to be coming from a boombox carried by a scrapyard worker. Christine's grille moves slightly.
