Christine vs The Car, it seems to be an ongoing debate as to which one of these two icons of horror deserves the number 1 spot on the list of horror cars on film. With each car having a very unique history, this debate is brought to a head in this in depth documentary of the history of these two legends of cinema.
MFP takes a look into the production history of both the 1983 Christine, and the 1977 The Car, as we bring you production and manufacturing history to offer the best possible answer as to which nightmare fueled demon on wheels deserves the top spot.

I saw The Car on TV as a kid and had trouble sleeping for weeks. I kept thinking it would drive through my bedroom. As an adult, I still find some scenes unnerving. The Car is most terrifying to me because it is just mindless evil with no back story. Christine is still a great movie and book.

It might’ve been subtle, Darnell must’ve realized that Christine is capable of driving herself, in short: found out her secret, so she had to silence him She doesn’t just kill who hurts her owner, she kills whoever disrespects her, and most of all she kills who could end up tearing her away from arnie

[@LITTLE1994]

Between the two, it's definitely The Car. Although Christine is more famous and is a great, more haunted killer car, something about The Car is more terrifying and powerful. We never know where it came from, there's no driver, it has a semi truck horn and Nascar-like V8, and most of all, it's INDESTRUCTIBLE. All this makes it very horrifying and underrated as the predecessor killer car to Christine. The Car is the King in my book, with Christine being close second.

[@deeznoots6241]

Also its very much implied to be satanic in nature, with its inability to enter hallowed ground(the graveyard) and the visuals of the ending explosion.

I grew up on "the car" and had nightmares about it. There was just something about it to me was more scary and supernatural. It was like u weren't safe anywhere. In ur house. Ur garage, the mountains. The police station. No where. Lol

[@DUSM]

Easily, 'The Car'. That movie scared me as a child. The atmosphere and environment was a huge part of what made the movie scary. Isolation, the vast unknown with no escape, and not knowing when or where the protagonist would appear to eliminate another town victim, only to learn at the end the true nature of the vehicle. Christine wasn't scary at all. While it attempted to be a psychological thriller, it didn't quite make the connection for me. There was something primal about The Car. To actually feel the fear emanating from the characters as they were being stalked by the evil manifestation. It was tangible and almost plausible. Christine, not so much. Kinda campy to me.

[@d_albanian4039]

Without hesitation I'd go with Christine, especially considering the fact there is a real-life Christine of sorts. An early '60s Dodge with an alleged body count of 14, it's a New England urban legend Stephen King must have heard numerous times while growing up in Maine, which must have played a part in him writing the novel. Bedtime Stories has a great video on it called "The Curse of the Golden Eagle" for those interested.

While I fell in love with Christine the first time I watched the movie, the Car scared the shit out of me. I refused for months to walk in front of parked cars, especially at night, thinking that their lights would flick on, and I’d hear that evil horn right before the scream of a V8… I always thought the credits of the Car teased an urban sequel, with a sportier Car hunting down any pedestrian in it’s path.

[@roger.e.lareau4556]

I can't choose one or the other. I love them both.

[@MrMightyZ]

The Car wasn't possessed or driven by an entity but was itself a demon. Built for the movie using a Lincoln but deliberately modified to appear as unique and not meant to be seen as a hot-rod Lincoln but as unlike any other car because in the story it wasn't built, it was a demon who has taken the form a car and its appearance is supposed to reflect the visage of the beast's actual form. Christine was most certainly a Plymouth that was possessed by an unquiet spirit and as much as I loved that book and to me Christine is a FAR better story, The Car is not only demonstrably a stronger car, being much harder to deform but it's is an actual freaking demon. So put all your money on The Car to destroy Christine. Unless Christine hides on holy ground she's finished. Although I would think a Hellbound spirit possessing a car and a demon who is a car would probably be friends, fast and true.

[@kingsize127]

I will say this: you show me Christine, I might mistake her for any other Plymouth. There’s no mistaking the Car. I will always know what it is if I ever see it. That makes it better (or should I say, scarier), in my opinion. Not to mention, the Car is seen as indestructible, whereas Christine is seen damaged. Yes, she repairs herself, but the Car never deals with it until the end… and even then it’s implied to have survived.

[@Radionut]

[@jamessaundersu.s.a.1776]

It seems like Christine holds more of a grudge and has more creative ways to kill. Also the car was destroyed but Christine could not be destroyed due to her ability to repair herself. But the mark III Lincoln itself is more intimidating than the 1958 Plymouth Fury, to me this makes Christine more terrifying because it seems to lure people to her due to her superficial beauty.

Something tells me if they would've just kept the 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark 3 standard the way it is 7:06 and just put tints on it and just had it all black, I think it would've been a lot more memorable to people. I think part of the reason why Christine is probably more memorable because they didn't really alter the car they basically kept the Plymouth Fury the way look and put tinted windows on it.

Then when it backs up to taunt him again, it's quiet as an EV again, with the tires rolling actually making more noise than the engine. Pure genius sound editing.

Excellent video as always from this channel! One minor point is that in the book "Christine", the odometer moving backwards is really heavily highlighted when Christine is being moved around and repairing herself, as far as I am aware from several discussions of the book it's not that she's actually repairing herself, but more that driving/moving her "turns back the clock" to when she was new again. If I recall correctly there was one paragraph in the book not long after Arnie buys her where it describes that her restoration appeared haphazard and random, but you can see how it may describe things being fixed "in order of decay" if you read it. It's still supernatural, just probably wouldn't work that well on film.

[@jrsmith1008]

Yes I agree the book about Christine is way better than the movie the thing about a self repairing car is such an awesome concept I would put up with her evilness just because it can fix itself and all I have to do is put fuel in it I would put my hand on her like Arnie did and caress her metal body

Nah Christine is more terrifying and here's why you don't have your guard up against Christine so you don't expect to be killed The Car on the other hand because of it's appearance and engine you instantly on full guard

@@JackA066 Christin is not terrifying. There’s something wrong with you 😉😘

​@@FrankKnight8846 i beg to differ. Christine blends in really well with the others while the car isn't. if your in a city, goodluck even knowing that random beauty you spotted is actually a haunted car. The car however, is very easy to identify once the results would come out, doesn't help IT DOESN'T blend well with the rest of the civillian cars while christine does.

For me Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was the most terrifying .

LOL

I think Herbie was even worse.

The Car - Jaws on land. But was effective to me as a kid. Demon car that just looks scary and appears out in the mysterious desert town. Christine - not exactly as scary to me (saw it at the cinema upon release) but was cool and mysterious as well. The self-restoration scene was and remains super cool. But both movies have the victims run down the middle of the road when chased by a car bent on killing them. Even then it would make us laugh.

Moochie tried hiding in the loading dock, not expecting Christine to just let the dock rip the metal so she could crush him in 2.

For me, The Car wins this one. The design is haunting, it looks alive and evil.

There's just a certain charm to these films that keeps you coming back. Solid video mate.

I have enjoyed both movies but, I'm partial to The Car. I was 14 & saw The Car on opening night - Friday, May 13, 1977. It was awesome. I was more fascinated with the physical & mechanical attributes of The Car which set the tone of how I built my first car - stance, powerplant, tires, etc.

"The Car" is definitely the most notorious horror mechanical monster. "Christine" gives a more psychological view of evil transformation on the driver and evil machine combined. That's why "Christine" is the most popular gorgeous (and sinister) classic car movie.
