A rogue red and white vintage 1958 Plymouth Fury, affectionately named Christine by its previous now deceased owner, is bought for a measly $250 by a nerdy four-eyed teen named Arnie in the spring of 1979.
Hoping a hot car would merely improve his chances of getting laid … Arnie did not expect the Stephen King unexpected … yes, Christine is possessed by supernatural forces (of course!) and will murder whoever comes between her and her new man.
Rival gangs are run down in the street, prospective lays are choked with hamburgers in her backseat at the drive-in … who will be next… and how do you stop a jealous, uncompromising, homicidal female … car???
