Christine's killer car is more than is seems.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT VFX artists react to the visual effects work used to bring the vehicular menace of Stephen King's Christine to life. Released in 1983, the John Carpenter-directed supernatural horror was adapted from King's novel. It starred Keith Gordon as the unwitting young owner of a car that possesses a murderous mind of its own.
Looking at one of the sequences in which the cursed car begins to repair itself, the three VFX artists highlighted how reverse footage and a duplicate vehicle made of more malleable plastics were imploded by high-powered hydraulic pumps to create the effect of Christine's healing abilities. Despite their praise, Sam highlighted the flaws in the "vacuum-formed" model that hinted at the trickery.
Despite its success, King's dissatisfaction with the final cut has been well-documented, with the author stating that he found himself bored by the adaptation, similar to his complaints about The Shining. However, Christine has had a lasting impact since it was released. It has surprising perseverance throughout pop culture, from Futurama combining King's tale with the Universal Monsters classic The Wolf-Man to nods in Stranger Things.
