 Is there no better vulgar rear end in a top hat character ever portrayed on film? I don't think so. We are first introduced to Darnell when Arnie Cunningham purchases Christine and needs a place to put her. Right away, the man is a crass bastard to Arnie, but seems to harbor a hidden heart of gold by the way he treats Arnie's friend, Dennis (while still being a prick). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbaAsgDBx0c Over time, Darnell starts warming up to Arnie and offers him a job running parts for his garage, but can still be a ruthless hardass when he needs to be. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUBiQTvTF68 Unfortunately, Darnell made the mistake of calling Christine a polished turd and, well, he just had to die. And might I add quite possibly the stupidest way to ever die in a movie. "This car drove into my garage as a smoldering heap and no one was inside driving it. GUESS I'LL SIT IN IT AFTER BURNING MY HAND ON THE DOOR LOCK.  "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8BfSnbFxj4 Poor Darnell. In the book, Darnell is killed in his own home by Christine as she crashes through the front of the house, giving him a fatal heart attack. I actually prefer the movie death since it's so ridiculous, but Christine had the power to possess people other than Arnie (in the book, but I think it's implied in the movie) and it's probably why he hopped into a burned-out car and why Moochie Welch just kind of stood there in the narrow loading dock as Christine barreled down on it instead of, you know, jumping over the car. Anyway, I loving love Darnell so much. I know you do, too. His dialog and screen time is top notch. R.I.P., Robert Prosky.

"Mechanical rear end in a top hat" is a top-notch phrase, btw.

They need to remake Christine but instead of a car she's a computer and then we can update all the schlubs to their 21st century glory

I had an idea of a remake set it in modern times and Christine is a late 80s model Camero that plays Hair Metal. Heck, might as well gender flip the cast too.

I love this idea! *as Cunningham is ejected through the windshield of the Camaro and is mortally wounded, he strokes Christine’s fiberglass grill one final time before dying. Cinderella’s “Don’t Know What You’ve Got (Till It’s Gone)” starts blaring supernaturally from the stereo* Also, Cunningham grows a mullet and starts wearing denim vests with leather pants instead of becoming a greaser like in the original.
