Scarecrowber: Christine
Opens October 26, 2024
John Carpenter’s lone Stephen King adaptation is one of the better ones, about a killer car named Christine and the nerd that she protects at all costs, while he begins to become more and more obsessed with her. In the process, his personality changes, and not necessarily for the better. And hey, Harry Dean Stanton is in this one! —Greg
