    In the 1983 movie "Christine," the 1958 Plymouth Fury takes center stage as a striking yet sinister automotive character. This vintage automobile, portrayed with meticulous attention to detail, is more than just a car; it's a supernatural force. Christine, with her immaculate red and white exterior, embodies an uncanny evilness as she slowly possesses her owner, Arnie Cunningham. The film's portrayal of this '58 Plymouth Fury masterfully blends classic car aesthetics with supernatural horror, showcasing the car's eerie ability to self-repair and its sinister intent. Christine transcends its mechanical nature, becoming a symbol of obsession, vengeance, and pure evil, leaving an indelible mark on the world of horror cinema.

    I worked at a Ford dealer and one of the salesmen had a '58 Fury. They wanted his vehicle for the movie but when he found out they were going to paint it red, he said "no." He sold and bought back his car three times. The last time I saw him, he still had his car. It had the engine with the dual quad set up. It was a pretty clean machine. Bill was quite the Mopar guy. He had an early 60s Chrysler 300 which was very clean, wound up selling it at Barrett Jackson for six figures.

    Even without the Christine connection, a 58 Fury, and really any Forward Look Mopar, is an awesome car. I think I read that King wanted a more unusual car than a 57 Chevy or Ford, so the Fury fit the bill. Although I loved the movie and esp the book, a little bit of me died each time one of the real-life cars were destroyed in the movie

    • @corvairjim1
      @corvairjim1 Před 7 měsíci +3

      ​@@deeremeyer1749And that's not the only mistake King made. The movie was correct in using a coupe because, as I recall, the first non two door hardtop Plymouth to carry the Fury badge came in 1959.
      As I recall, King said the car was a 1957 model, while the film used 58's. I suppose the reason behind that was the quad headlights. The '57 appeared to have quads as well, but the inner lights were actually the turn signals set into large surrounds to appear to be high beams. The quad headlights were used to a great advantage in the movie; two headlights just wouldn't seem as terrifying.
      As was pointed out in the video, all 1958 Furys were off-white with gold anodized aluminum trim. Other colors became available in 1959.
      The other mistake that King made was Christine's Pennsylvania license plate. The number was completely different from the format used on the 1957 issued passenger car tags. I suppose it could have been a vanity plate, but why? It was just a random number, much like the yellow California tags on the movie car.
      Having said all of that, I still prefer the book to the film, which I also enjoyed but which was very mild compared to the horrors that Stephen King so adeptly wrote into his novel. Special effects in the human mind are so much better than anything Hollywood can cook up!

    I’m a SK fan, but often the movie adaptations suck, because they stray so far from the source material. While John Carpenter’s “Christine” isn’t all that faithful to the book it is so well done it is one of the few “drop the remote and watch” SK movie adaptations for me. I’ve seen it countless times. While I knew about the plastic “regeneration” Christine I didn’t realize so many real Belvedere/Fury cars were destroyed making the movies. I’d assumed they were mock-ups in many cases. It hurts my heart to know so many of these rare beasts were wrecked for the sake of the movie. But also heartened to hear die-hard fans somewhat resurrected a few of them. A enjoyable and entertaining video. Thanks!

      Dont forget two other different things:
      In the book Arnie bought Christine from LeBay itself and when he dies the brother tells Dennis about Christine and all the horror about (Wife, Daughter). And what a fckng bad guy LeBay really was.
      And that Junkins is killed by Christine.
      The time in the book is much longer, in movie it seems like a few weks, in the book the Story is over a few month.
      And in the book it seems that Arnie tries to free himself from Christines bad influence and that the Ghost of LeBay is the real bad in all of it.

    A few summers ago I was out for a bike ride and wound up on a country road I'd never been on. Nothing but tall grass and trees when this red barn appears on my left. As I got closer there sat a red Plymouth (most likely a Belvedere) just sitting out next to the barn with not a soul in sight. I stopped and looked at it from the road, and as I rode away I had to laugh at my urge to look over my shoulder and make sure a pair of headlights weren't bearing down on me!

    In 1990/91/92 (can't remember the exact year) Tim Cook used cars in Newberry SC had a white '58 Fury for sale for $4200. My Dad, Uncle, and I went to look at it and debated and I kick myself every time I think how we didn't pull the trigger. Also, in the late '80s, there was one sitting next to an old place between Lexington and Batesburg SC for sale. From the road it looked like the scene oit of the movie.

    It was nicely done, but downtown Rochester is a sketchy place these days. I would walk by the window at night at see it 10 feet from the window like it was a window display at a mall or something.
    I was always afraid someone was going to smash the glass, go in and mess it up along with all the other cars that were there.

    Love your episode on Christine, it's awesome. Could you do one on the Duke Of New Yorks Cadillac, the one with chandeliers on the fenders, from 1981s Escape From New York. Also the white boatail car from the 1937 movie "Topper" with Cary Grant, it's the most awesome, and elaborate movie made car I've ever seen. It's not an Auburn. It looks like it's made out of steel and is fully functional with full interior, and an unusual storage space behind the rear seat for the spare tire. The movie Topper is currently on CZcams. I think your viewers would like to learn about both cars.

I actually saw one of the screen used Christine at the Mecum Auction at Kissimmee Fl in January 2020.
