Christine (1983) – John Carpenter’s Killer Car, Stephen King Chaos, and VHS Mayhem
Update: 2025-09-26
Description
It’s 1983, John Carpenter teams up with Stephen King, and the result is… a car that straight-up murders people. Christine is part horror, part puberty metaphor, and part demolition derby.
In this episode of Rewind or Die, Adam, Jeff, and Steve chase down cursed automobiles, rant about VHS rentals, Frostys in yellow cups, and why the Oakland A’s are basically the Incredible Hulk of baseball. Plus: Carpenter’s ‘director jail’ era, King’s cocaine-fueled writing spree, and more tangents than Christine has dents.
