Christine (King novel)/YMMV


 * Crowning Moment of Funny: In the movie, Dennis tries to break into Christine, including giving a sharp knock on the window. Christine's response: play Little Richard's Keep a Knocking on the radio.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: "Bad to The Bone" in this context, and "Harlem Nocturn" when Christine repairs herself for the first time.
 * Christine's first (more or less) kill wouldn't have been the Crowning Moment of Awesome it was without Moochie Mix Four playing in the background.
 * Christine's death as she is crushed in a compactor: "Rock and Roll is Here to Stay", she is basically taunting everyone that they will never be rid of her.
 * Not Quite Dead: She appears in IT to bust Henry Bowers out of the psyche ward on Pennywise's behest.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: Roland LeBay sells his used junky car. Not at all related to eBay.
 * Nausea Fuel: The bullies couldn't just be satisifed by beating the hell out of Christine; they had to.
 * Stealth Pun: Christine doesn't actually belong to LeBay for most of the books, but the words his unending fury can also be read as his unending Fury. Which she is.
 * Tear Jerker:.
 * Visual Effects of Awesome: The shots of Christine's regenerations were actually shot using mock ups that were built with more flexible materials that looked like metal which were sucked in by pumps with the film being played back in reverse to complete the effect (which was surprisingly effective).
 * Woobie Destroyer of Worlds: Anyone who was ever bullied can sympathize with Arnie. That is, until he veers away from Whos Laughing Now to running down and battering innocent police detectives.
