See there? You kids got The Transformers. My generation? We had ... Christine!
On this day in 1983 (in Turkey, Canada, and the U.S.), Christine drove itself to box office heights. Directed by John Carpenter and based on the novel by Stephen King, the Horror feature starred Keith Gordon, John Stockwell, Alexandra Paul, and others.
According to our friends at IMDB.com, here's the plot summary:
"A nerdish boy buys a strange car with an evil mind of its own and his nature starts to change to reflect it."
For the record:
At the 1984 Saturn Awards (sponsored by the Academy Of Science Fiction, Fantasy, And Horror Films), Christine enjoyed a nomination in the category of 'Best Horror Film.'
