The entire premise is obviously as stupid as it gets (even the scenes of Christine fixing itself, visually impressive at first, becoming comical later on), but that classic era Carpenter style somehow makes it watchable. His signature music of course, but also a visual/tonal/mood style that’s very reminiscent of Halloween, to where I was actually surprised it wasn’t shot by Dean Cundey. Also enjoyed Keith Gordon’s transformation throughout the movie.

Such a fun film. It starts off being a cheesy teen drama, but then descends into a crazy flick when Arnie takes the Chad pill and starts dunking on everyone, including his parents. The music is stellar, you could play it at a rave and I don't think anyone would notice. And that scene where Christine is on fire is just epic.

At its best this feels like a masculine counterpart to Carrie but the production isn't quite up to Carpenter's highest standards, which draws too much attention to the pulpy silliness of its premise. That's not to say that it's bad though & it contains some great scenes & rare dynamics. Indeed if you can appreciate what comes with "pulp cinema" this has a clever elegance to it. What probably throws most people off is that the horror (if that's even what they were going for) doesn't really work.

The actors do a good job in this movie. Unfortunately the premise is not that scary and an evil car is very limited. The screenplay tries hard but it can't overcome the weak premiere. Overall this movie is disappointing.

I've just watched this, and I know nothing about it, but I'll say this is the most (undeservedly) underrated Carpenter movie.

Not an exciting film, but there's something about it. Potentially, it's just low-key odd enough that it kept me involved, which it did. You could go even further with Juraj Herz's even less thrilling, but weirder 'Ferat Vampire'. How many killer car movies are there anyway?

Carpenter does a great job and the car SPFX are genuinely impressive, but the script is weak and the general concept is 'uber' goofy in its presentation. I bet this could have snuck by with a PG-13 if they said "cunt" less.

This wasn't one of John Carpenter's better movies. The script had some fun moments in it. I'm sure that this would have been a fun date night movie at the time for teenagers or twenty-year-olds but it just doesn't hold up. I understand that the premise is supposed to be goofy but it's also supposed to be scary at moments and I didn't feel any fear throughout. The whole story was pretty boring from beginning to end. Once again, I did like some of the high school hijinx that happened but that's it

What it has going for it is a whole lot of fun, which is boosted by enjoyable performances & lots of clever visuals, as well as some extremely clever work in creating the character of Christine- the radio, the lights, the manipulation of her owner, etc. But, it's far from flawless & has a number of issues, such as a very weak female lead who's often more like a prop than a character & a few odd plot points that could use more explaining. It's definitely worth a look, but is far from great.

Rebel Without a Cause meets Halloween. Clearly an assignment for Carpenter, who was desperate for work after The Thing flopped, but he created a visually compelling film with great widescreen compositions and dollies that are slick and keep this inherently silly story moving along with efficiently controlled rhythm. The acting is hit and miss, and the death scenes are rather tame, but the finale in a gloomy garage is quite intense, and the effects of Christine restoring herself are well done.
