Christine Blu-ray

Quote:

Based on the best-selling Stephen King novel, CHRISTINE is a dark and violent film about the dangers of obsession. When a unpopular young man, Arnie (Keith Gordon), buys a vintage car to restore, it changes his life completely. The more he works on the car, which he names Christine, the more his personality changes. He becomes moody and dark, spending more and more time with the car and less and less with his friends. The friends become concerned as Arnie's passion for the automobile turns to extreme, and he becomes unstable. But the car has powers over the young man, and takes on a life of its own, becoming as obsessed with its new owner as he is of it. Their devotion to one another quickly becomes violent, and separating Arnie from the car is a deadly task for his friends. With CHRISTINE, director John Carpenter delivers a faithful adaptation of the book by Stephen King. One master of horror adapting another's work seems ideal, and the results are as powerful as expected. With Carpenter's ability to make the supernatural seem plausible, even commonplace, the film excels in evoking plenty of scares and nail biting from the audience.

Glad it's getting released. Too bad Sony wimped out again though. Someone else can pay $30+ for it.

uggg, another decent titles shilled out to TT.... another pass

No doubt this will follow Fright Night to a quick sell out.

NoirFan · 09-14-2012, 10:41 PM

Hopefully The Blob, Candyman, Curse of the Demon and the original Fly are among the other genre titles.

Been waiting on this one for quite awhile. Will definitely be picking this up!

I saw this movie recently on TV. I enjoyed it a lot so I'll definitely pick it up. Twilight Time should release more horror movies. It works for them because they sell out and it works for us because they're releasing quality titles that the studios have neglected.

returnofthemack · 09-14-2012, 10:49 PM

sigh. so does this mean they have it for sure?

captainjoe · 09-14-2012, 10:49 PM

Wish this was coming from Scream Factory, would've been cheaper and no doubt with more extras. Nevertheless I can't say no to this

Yes.

I wish they would do JC's Prince of Darkness, this title needs a release already.

deadhatetheliving · 09-14-2012, 10:53 PM

I really don't like the idea of having to drop $30 for a BD but this movie is amazing. Wish I put in for Fright Night and Night of the Living Dead. I guess this means TT has the rights to The Blob?

I can almost guarantee Shout will eventually put this out.

Morsoth · 09-14-2012, 10:53 PM

I'll pick this one for sure!

Never been a fan of Christine in the past, but I started a die-cast collection three years ago (only cars from Movies or TV-Series), and I'm loving almost all the famous cars because of that!

Ugh, I knew it. I've passed on the other TT titles due to their high prices, but this is a must-have. Damn you, Sony.

I actually like this myself, I love limited stuff, especially my RCCA Elite Nascar 1/24th collectible cars and the Sideshow Statues etc, and limited video games, just makes it that much funner trying to track these types of things down.
