Just See It.

I won't waste your time repeating for the one thousandth time what the plot of the movie is. That is not what reviews are for.
This movie seems stupid, but it's not. I avoided this film up until five years ago when I saw it on a lark, fully expecting it to be a complete waste of time. Man, was I wrong. The movie is actually surprisingly entertaining.
There is nothing better than the scene where someone is trying to get into the car and she starts playing "I hear you knockin', but you can't come in" on the radio. Genius.

Amazing! Sensacional!

Irei escrever em português, já que sou um cliente brasileiro do site amazon.
Comprei o filme Christine do site Amazon.com, e adorei o atendimento, a entrega, e o proprio filme. A edição comemorativa possui dublagem clássica em português, vários extras, e está com um preço sensacional.
Recomendo a todos!

One of my Favorite Stephen King Films!!!
Added 2/25/2009
Besides Carrie, Christine is my 2nd favorite Stephen King film! John Carpenter did an awesome job at directing this, as he did with my all-time favorite movie, HALLOWEEN! I love the idea of a classic red 1958 Plymouth Fury being possessed and kills for her owner. Her name is Christine. A nerd named Arnie Cunningham finds a crappy Plymouth Fury, and fixes it up. After he fixes it, it looks awesome! The bullies that pick on Arnie and trash Christine get whats comin' to them. Arnie's friend, Dennis, and Arnie's girlfried, Leigh try to find out about Christine's haunted past and try to stop her from taking over Arnie, who is now obsessed with Christine. I love how Christine fixes herself. If you love horror, classic cars, and Stephen King films, you'll love CHRISTINE!!!

This is still a good old suspense movie. Shilling and thrilling. With a good story line behind it.

A 1958 PLYMOUTH FURY COMES ALIVE
Added 11/20/2008
Christine (Special Edition)
During post-war, pre-inflation 1957, the Detroit assebly lines were the bread and butter of the American economy. It was a time of cheap Gas, plentiful steel, and an insatiable hunger for the dream-machines that were cranked out by the Big Three, FORD-GENERAL MOTORS-CHRYSLER. John Carpenter, opens the film in are-created Plymouth plant in Detroit, late 1957, where a singular red and white Fury rolls down the line amid the roar of machinery and the whine of air-tools. Finned, fitted, sleek and shiny, another new '58 is ready to cruise. The foreman is glad to see this one go. It has been trouble all the way down the line, killed a line worker - somehow even the air feels cold as the car goes by. Some cars are just - born bad. Arnie Cunningham (Keith Gordon) is the school - jerk. There's no getting around it. The minute you see the adhesive holding his glasses together, the moment the Garbage bag breaks all over the driveway, you know this guy.
Arnie Cunningham's parents refuse to let him keep the car, but the car already has a bad influence on him. He defies his parents and keeps the car at Darnell's Garage, where he starts working part-time to make enough money to restore it. John Carpenter is an accomplished musician and has scored many of his own films. For Christine he uses a selection of '50s and '60s rock and roll to puntuate the events and dialogue.
Carpenter is quoted to have said, "You can't take certain machines for granted. Ever. Not for a second. Or they will come and bite you"!
