10 Slasher Horror Movie Characters Who Were Seconds Away From Surviving
7. Moochie - Christine
In this Stephen King adaptation, a nerdy teenager called Arnold falls in love with a Plymouth Fury called Christine and decides to buy it. When Arnold's car attracts the attention of a girl he fancies, he believes his luck is finally turning around for the better. Little does he know that his Plymouth Fury is alive and compelled to kill anyone who wrongs her.
When Arnold gets picked on by a bully called Moochie, Christine chases after him that same night. When Moochie realises Christine isn't messing around and is trying to kill him, he seeks shelter inside an alleyway too narrow for Christine to drive through. However, the vengeful vehicle forces itself in, crushing Moochie to death.
Even though Moochie has the most iconic death in the film, he could've easily evaded Christine. If he hopped onto the bonnet of the car, he could've escaped the alleyway. Although it's possible Christine could've run him over afterward, it's silly that Moochie made no effort to get away from the devilish automobile, especially when it was driving towards him at three miles per hour.
