Episode 131 Christine
It’s October, the scariest month, which means it’s time once again for our annual Schlocktoberfest! We’re kicking off our celebration of all things spooky-ooky with John Carpenter’s lightweight yet underrated Christine (1983). On the surface, this movie is about a haunted car that kills people, but if you pop open the hood, you’ll find threads of repressed homosexuality and anti-materialism that give this well-crafted gem the horsepower it needs to go that extra mile. Join us as we fawn over Carpenter’s sturdiness, relive a Law & Order moment, and review an infomercial for the Venus II, this week on Hex Rated BOO!vies!
