Oh I wish I could have been able to buy this...🥰😍😍

The 1958 Plymouth Fury "Christine" from the 1983 John Carpenter horror adaptation of Stephen King's novel.

@risretrograde !!!!

[risretrograde]

ok guys enough playing around time for me to lock in and start grinding so that I can buy Christine 😌

(edit nvm just realized she was already sold I’m crying… again)

[booji-doll]

Despite the fact that the movie tries to make out that Christine was just made evil, I want y'all to know that she is a victim and deserves love too 😔 LeBay should pay for what he did to her, his fucking family and Arnie(and literally anyone else he's hurt and you know that list is long)

[risretrograde]

proud to say I always have been (and always will be) the biggest Arnie Cunningham and Christine apologist ❤️‍🩹

[risretrograde]

I’ve been stuck at work since 8AM (here for the rest of the day) and all I can think about are my plans to watch Christine later tonight 🫶🏻

(it’s been a minute and I feel due for a rewatch)

[booji-doll]

I say as I watch another goofy 80s movie with Keith Gordon in it(thanks for the recommendation @r1t4washere)

I swear I'm swooning so hard every time

[risretrograde]

SO REAL ME TOO

(fun fact: I proudly have an entire Keith Gordon movie collection… just thought everyone should know ❤️)

[risretrograde]

👀 I swear I just be posting anything …

tumblr please I’m begging you don’t ruin the quality like on the last video I posted </3

the way I’m currently sick AGAIN because I have the immune system of a fucking walmart gift card yet I’m still down so bad for this man is so me coded

[risretrograde]

Christine collection ! °✩

Posted this over on TikTok, but I thought I’d share it here too!

~

I don’t gate-keep so if anyone is interested in where I got anything (or would like to be mutuals on TikTok), feel free to ask ♥️

~

note: I’m very shy and was a little nervous about posting this since I am in the frame for a few seconds at the end, so please be kind in the comments. Enjoy my attempt at being “aesthetic” lol

The fact that the song Arnie's Love Theme exists really just makes me so happy. Arnie is number 1 loverboy, number 1 yearner

Thank you John Carpenter for seeing it, and thank you Stephen King for writing Arnie in the first place

currently adding “getting to see Christine irl” to the bucket list

(I’d be fangirling so hard ngl… I bet she’s even more stunning in person 🥹)

[risretrograde]

🤭 don’t mind me, just thought I’d share this cute little post I made over on TikTok in honor of it being Keith Gordon’s birthday today! °✩ ♡

( and yes, I am very proud of the fact that our birthdays are only three days apart hehe )

[risretrograde]

birthday post ❣️ birthday post ❣️

( technically yesterday since it’s officially after midnight but whatever lol )

🎂

GUYS look at what my amazing mother got me. She knows how much I love Christine so this just felt perfect. I’m so happy right now and I love it so much I just thought I’d share. Unfortunately I’ve been feeling pretty under the weather (having a birthday during cold/flu season is my own personal downfall, I swear this happens every year), but I still managed to make the best of it and I couldn’t be more grateful for another year, because not to be dramatic or anything but I never saw myself making it to 18 and now I’m already in the second year of my twenties. 🥹

ANYWAY here’s my new (favorite) shirt! I’m already SO excited to wear it :))

if you scrolled down this far… another of my favorite “birthday gifts” includes the two films I ordered for myself on eBay that star Keith Gordon because yeah, Christine made me fall completely head over heels for this man and now I’ve got my heart set on collecting every movie he’s been in. it’s giving obsessed it’s giving “nurse she’s out again” but I can’t help it I seriously can’t get enough of him ugh

pov Christine after yet another successful day of murdering people

( someone tell me WHY I’ve had a creativity block for weeks now but the second I saw these edits on TikTok I was so locked in I couldn’t focus on anything else until I made this )

whoops

LMFAO HELP

Arnie's Loss of Identity 💔

We know how Arnie's personality is described by Stephen: Intelligent, Sweet, Thoughtful, Quirky, Humourous, Shy—but it all takes a turn when he's influenced by Lebay's spirit and Christine.

1st image is Arnie at his best before disaster happens.

2nd is transition and him realizing something isn't feeling right. I took inspiration from the phone booth scene near the middle of the book when he's realizing something is wrong and wants to reach out to loved ones but can’t get any help. I love how Stephen depicted him not fully understanding what's happening to him and the horror and confusion he feels when the switches happen. I find that scene so sad...

Quote: "Arnie came back to himself suddenly, scared and wide-eyed, breathing hard. What had been happening to him? He had seemed like someone else there for a moment.." —Christine by Stephen King

(Also unless I missed it, it's not mentioned if he ditches the glasses earlier, but I would assume his vision improves as apart of the "healing" process. So I drew him with and without glasses here.)

3rd is complete disassociation and decent further from his true personality.

I focused more on personality here than how Stephen described his looks. I might explore his book descriptions more later, but Keith is my go to representation.

SIDE NOTE: Arnie has legit GRAY EYES! I know Stephen described them as gray like a cloudy autumn sky, but I didn't take it literal for some reason, but then I looked it up and gray eyes are a thing! I love him so much better with gray eyes, so I made the change with these drawings. (I'm slow)

Quote: "God gives everyone at least one good feature... and with Arnie it was his eyes. Behind the glasses that usually obscured them they were a fine and intelligent gray, the color of clouds on an overcast autumn day." —Christine by Stephen King

Christine Kandi Book!! ⚡️

hellooo!!! 😸😸 this was for an assignment where I had to make an artist book using any materials and a subject of my choice. it was assigned in october so I thought christine would be the perf topic,,, using pony beads definitely abstracted a lot of the pages but I think it’s fairly easy to tell what each page of of. I hope 😸 I’ve found it’s easier to tell what things are when looking at it from a distance!! it weighs a little more than 2.5 pounds and I used about 3900 beads! anyways 😸😸 just wanted 2 share!!

[risretrograde]

THIS IS SO INSANELY COOL

{ thoughts and reflections for the new year }

Joining the Christine fandom and Tumblr community was the highlight of my 2025, I’m so incredibly grateful for all the amazing fellow Christine (and Arnie) lovers I’ve had the privilege of meeting. There’s nothing better than getting to yap about something I love so much with people who feel the same way, and that in itself means so much to me because I’ve never had that before with anyone. Y’all are seriously the best ❤️‍🔥

( Also, I would proudly like to admit that the first movie I’ve watched in 2026 so far is in fact Christine hehehe )

Merry ‘Christine-mas’ to everyone who celebrates! 🫶🏻
