Halloween Film Poll #2: John Carpenter 76-86 (Ten Awe-Inspiring Years)

One of the most remarkable periods for any American filmmaker comes for director John Carpenter between 1976 and 1986. With no disrespect meant for Carpenter's work before the period or since, this particular ten year run is truly awe inspiring and it is the focus of my 2nd poll here at Moon in the Gutter to celebrate the 30th anniversary of one of Carpenter's most startling creations, Halloween ....

DVD REVIEW: Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer – Lack of Anger Management Can Be a Good Thing!

Horror movies are notorious for many reasons other than the fact that people seem to enjoy a good scare now and then. For many first-time directors [see: Sam Raimi, John Carpenter], horror is attractive because fans are willing to buy into low-budget movies if they’re suitably original and/or smart, and/or fun. In the case of [...]

Special Movie Poster and Magnet’s 6-Shooter Film Series

Way back in March, I posted the trailer for Special, a U.S. indie about a heavily-medicated man convinced he has superpowers, as played by Michael Rapaport. The film caught my interest not only due to Dick Ritchie, but also its gritty exploration of a would-be superhero whose body and mind suffer the consequences. Ever since [...]

Feature: A Fanboy's Notes: Terror in Topeka

It’s been 30 years since Jamie Lee Curtis discovered that some holidays are dangerous in “Halloween.”As a proud native of Kansas’ capital, I have to admit that excitement and Topeka have little in common.It’s true that Fred Phelps and his wacky followers provide a touch of black comedy, but Topeka thankfully has some terrific opportunities that film geeks would be fools to pass up.For example, every...

This Week in Geek (29/09-5/10/08)

Buys Iron Man came out this week, so what do you think? Jon Favreau's really entertaining on other commentary tracks, so I'm sad not to see one included. Ah well. I also got me something missing from my collection: John Carpenter's The Thing. I mean, what was I waiting for? For Kurt Russell to come to my house and kick my ass personally?

Last year, I liveblogged Plan 9 from Outer Space and we had a rollicking good time. I wish I had lived blogged They Live yesterday because John Carpenter is [...]

October 2008 is John Carpenter Month

Howdy folks. I'm SSK (or The Silver Screen Kid - if you're not into the whole brevity thing). Some of you may know me, some may not. All who read this, know this: I do my own damn thang. To the death. My own stubbornness is part of the reason I respect John Carpenter so much. The Big JC! Titan of Terror! Master of Suspense! The only guy to ever make a movie in which an alien's chest cavity bites the...

John Carpenter's Halloween: It's a Kentucky Thing

While it may be set in the fictional town of Haddonfield, Illinois (not to mention actually shot in California), John Carpenter's Halloween is to a lot of fans very much a Kentucky film. I was only five years old when Halloween first hit theaters in October of 1978, so I was too young to see the film in its first run. I ended up seeing it for the first time around the age of ten courtesy of a TV broadcast...
