With our deep love of 50s music and muscle cars, it’s about time we get in and take a cruise in the good ol’ Stephen King’s classic – Christine.

Maybe it is more of our deep love for 80s horror and teenagers getting slaughtered! When Arnie met Christine it was like worlds colliding.

Then, she collided into every sad sack that did him wrong at school, and his boss, and his girlfriend, which stung because Christine was a giant shark of a car made of American Steel with a heart forged in Hell.

When checking in to the Dolphin Hotel, do yourself a favour and avoid room 1408 unless you plan on packing a body bag! On today’s episode of Dead Air, Wes and Lydia turn their keys and enter the 2007 Stephen King Adaptation; 1408.

Mike Enslin is a horror author that seems to have a knack for debunking haunted hotels but when he receives a mysterious post card inviting him to room 1408 he finds something far worse than a fearsome apparition. He finds a room that is purely and simply evil. Ignoring all warnings he finds himself locked within the room as it slowly and effectively dissolves his mind. As time passes and he no longer can discern reality from fantasy it becomes of question of just what will the room show him next? Can he escape or will he join the dozens of others who have succumb to room 1408. Also, Wes and Lydia talk all things Stephen King.
