So this is a movie about an evil car named Christine. So today I'm here to tell you why fans of Stephen King or horror in general should probably go see John Carpenter's Christine. After a quick chat with my good friend Garth and another trip through the movie I've been convinced of exactly the opposite. I thought it was your typical male fear-fantasy of feminine jouissance simply brought into the realm of automobile fetishization. Among other things I didn't realize the first time I watched this film was that it contains a critique of its subject matter. A bit of an interesting entry in his early career is the horror/thriller Christine (1983), a movie I didn't realize is adapted from a Stephen King novel of the same name. Recently I've been absolutely in love with the movies of John Carpenter.
