Christine (1983)
from Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast Hosted by Percolated Media
Finishing out this leg of their look at Stephen King’s entire set of adaptations, the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast are looking at a film which features one of the popular author’s most recognizable villains. Before the book was even published, producer Richard Kobritz (Salem’s Lot) enlisted Halloween’s John Carpenter to come in and helm a film adaptation, to come out at the end of the year. After a few years on their own network, the guys have finally gotten to a piece of Carpenter’s well regarded early resume. What is everyone’s background when it comes to his films? Why did Garrett hold Christine in such high regard as a teenager? What does he feel about it now? And what does Adam feel about finally getting to one of his favorite directors? Now that Garrett, Matt, and Adam have closed out this part of King’s adaptation resume, what’s next for the trio? Let’s just say the answer, which is given at the end of this podcast, may be looked at as a ‘Master’ class of popcorn filmmaking.
