The Car was a heavily modified Lincoln Continental that appeared in the 1977 film of the same name. The Car was customized by 'Kustom king' George Barris to give it a lower, more menacing stance, the Car, like Christine, Horace the Hate Bug, K.A.R.R was anthropomorphic and evil. The film, however, was not as successful as Christine. The Car later returns again in the sequel film The Car: Road to Revenge ready to attack again and cause more havoc than ever before.
The Car inhabited the fictional Utah town of Santa Ynez. In its first appearance, it kills two cyclists cycling along a canyon and kills over ten people by the end of the film. In the end, the Car is destroyed and a demonic visage is witnessed in the smoke of the explosion.
