" Date: 5/30/2021 Viewed: 4K UHD Re-Watch Note: Christine was the first movie by John Carpenter that I remember watching as a little kid back in the mid 90s. I still remember having dreams of being inside an empty car that would drive on its own for years. Christine is not my favorite movie from John Carpenter, but I still consider it to be a good movie in my opinion. For a film that has a silly premise, it actually works very well. It takes itself seriously without trying too hard in my opinio"

"My rating: 7/10 (Rewatch)"

“Few films mine the past in such a veiled, foreboding sense as John Carpenter's "Christine", but even if his efforts do not quite coalesce in terms of pacing and plot, the film's characterisations, zippy dialogue, slick visuals, nostalgic soundtrack (utilised to great effect during murder sequences) and vehicular stunts all thankfully aggrandise the proceedings, thus saving it from becoming a generic adaptation of a lesser Stephen King novel. It may not be as effective in totality as it is in fragments, but even Carpenter's weakest fare retains entertainment value, and this is no exception; not succeeding as a singular work exalts it as a classic in the 1980s horror canon by virtue of its daringly implausible premise.
