Default Buddy Repperton

Christine is my favorite novel of Stephen King. I can almost picture the charatcer in my head from the movie even though there are differences. The actor had nice clean teeth and the book character had bad teeth. Anyhow, if anyone knows, I am very curious where he came up with the name of Buddy Repperton. Its a great bully name for some reason, but I love it.

The character of Buddy Repperton scares me! I used to date a guy like him when I was in high school. The guy took auto-mechanics; wore engineer boots and had greasy long hair just like Repperton. I always have to fast forward the DVD because I can't stand to look at the guy!

He's the evil version of Danny Zuko (the actors even look like each other), a shame that in the movie he wasn't half brave as he was in the book, even he being a total douché.

in the movie he looked like a john travolta wannabe - i love the film of 'christine', i really do, but you gotta laugh at all those 30-year-old high school students.

I felt sorry for Buddy Repperton until 'Christine' worked on him and he became a classic 'toe rag'. He was full of teenage ankst and wanted badly some self esteem. I felt he deserved some of the revenge too though not in the same way as I felt Carrie did.

In the movie, he looks like Wolverine, or like Danzig's uncle.
