MONSTER FEST WEEKENDER: HIGHWAY TO HELL! In 1983, John Carpenter and Stephen King, two titans of horror, collided in a nightmarish film about a sentient 1958 Plymouth Fury that becomes fixated on a bullied teen, killing anyone who comes between them… and the world was never the same again.Keith Gordon stars as Arnie Cunningham, a shy, bullied high school student who discovers a battered 1958 Plymouth Fury and slowly becomes consumed by its restoration—while the car becomes fixated on him. As the car’s fixation turns into obsession and Arnie’s tormentors begin to die in increasingly brutal and inexplicable ways, his best friend Dennis (John Stockwell) and girlfriend Leigh (Alexandra Paul) watch helplessly as something far more dangerous takes hold of him. A slick, unnerving fusion of suburban teen drama and supernatural horror, this is Carpenter at his best.
