HALLOWEEN (2018)
In this 2018 film Hollywood’s war on originality reached new heights
PREY
Among unmade John Carpenter screenplays PREY, a 98 page script hailing from the mid-1970s, is about average
MELTDOWN
John Carpenter has described this never-made script as “kind of HALLOWEEN in a nuclear power plant,” and that does indeed sum it up
THE FOG
That’s appropriate, as THE FOG is far and away the best of the bunch. For that matter, I feel it’s one of Etchison’s best novels, period.
The Ten Most Overrated Horror Movies
The horror movie genre, like any other, contains more than its share of overpraised clunkers
HALLOWEEN III: SEASON OF THE WITCH
The nuttiest of the HALLOWEEN sequels, a Michael Myers-less something-or-other involving computers, Stonehenge, androids and deadly masks.
HALLOWEEN II
This is the original HALLOWEEN II, not the inexcusable Rob Zombie one—even though this one’s pretty rotten, as its co-writer/producer John Carpenter admits.
HALLOWEEN
One of the most iconic horror films of all time, and the most famous ever made by John Carpenter.
Five Books Called Halloween
Five books called Halloween. That’s all.
CHRISTINE
One of John Carpenter’s all-around best films, a darkly comedic haunted car chiller that’s dated extremely well.
