Christine Storyline
Arnie Cunningham is a typical high school nerd who is picked on, overruled by his parents, and has very few friends. Until he meets Christine, a run-down 1958 Plymouth Fury and buys her. Arnie learns that Christine has a thing for him and devotes his time to restoring her to Mint Condition. But overtime, Arnie begins to change and becomes disconnected with reality and his friends. Arnie's girlfriend Leigh and best friend Dennis find out that Christine's previous owner cared about nothing else when he bought her and find out that Arnie is becoming just like him. The only way they can bring Arnie back to reality is to destroy Christine, But Arnie and Christine are ready to destroy them first and any one else who gets in their way.

Christine trivia
- SPOILER: Pay attention to the background when Arnie first brings Christine to Darnell's Garage. As he's walking back to Dennis's car to ask him to honk his horn, you can see the bulldozer in the background that will be used to destroy Christine.
- Screenwriter 'Bill Phillips (I)' (qv) and rocker 'George Thorogood' (qv) filmed a cameo appearance as the junkyard workers who compress Christine and dropped the cube at the end but the sequence was cut because neither one could act very well (as Phillips states in the documentary). It was Phillips who also suggested that they use Thorogood's "Bad To The Bone" as the movie's theme song.
- SPOILER: In the DVD Documentary, 'Bill Phillips (I)' (qv) says that he cut out the novel's plot line of the dead owner's spirit possessing Arnie and actually causing Christine to kill not only to save time and compress the story, but also because he didn't want it to look like they were copying _An American Werewolf in London (1981)_ (qv) where Jack does the same thing to David.
- According to 'Bill Phillips (I)' (qv) on the DVD Documentary, the movie technically didn't have enough violence to justify an "R" rating. But they were afraid that if the movie went out with a PG rating (PG-13 didn't exist yet), then nobody would go to see the movie. So he purposely inserted the word "fuck" and all its derivatives in order to get the "R" rating. He then commented that they were criticized at the time for their use of the word in the film.
- SPOILER: After reading over the book, actor 'Keith Gordon (I)' (qv) (Arnie) and the costume designer came up with a visual way to show Arnie being possessed by Christine. As the movie progresses, Arnie begins to wear clothes that reflect the era of Christine's make. At various points, especially when Arnie is yelling at Leigh on the phone, Arnie is seen wearing button up shirts open with black t-shirts, black pants, and boots like a 1950's "greaser". When he's talking to Junkins (both times), he's wearing a leather vest over a button up shirt (a nod to western TV shows which were popular in the 50's), and he even starts to wear a red suede jacket like 'James Dean (I)' (qv) in _Rebel Without a Cause (1955)_ (qv).
