Plot hole: George Lebay says that his brother died "6 weeks ago" inside Christine and that's why he's selling it. Later that evening after Arnie leaves his house and goes to Darnell's, Will Darnell says he "knew a guy who owned a car like that" and "the bastard killed himself in it." If it's only been 6 weeks since his death, shouldn't Darnell have recognized the car? It's not like there were lots of red Plymouth Furies (custom order color) running around the small town, let alone the USA, even in 1978. (Also considering how production even had a hard time finding them for the movie).

8. 9/10. A solid horror movie of the 80's. John Carpenter brings this story to life with the zest he's possessed in all of his work. Keith Gordon and Alexandra Paul, who I dislike, have surprisingly good chemistry. I was impressed by how they did Christine the possessed car. The first time I saw it that car looked like it was actually alive to me. This movie should be considered one of the horror genre.

Suggested correction: He says he knew a guy with a car like that. It doesn't have to be the same colour or even the same generation. Just a Plymouth Fury.
Darnell basically said he knew THE brother of Lebay, not just some guy who owned a similar car. Darnell described Lebay's brother based on the story. Again, it was him, not just some other guy.
Arnie Cunningham: Okay... show me.
