What have you done with your life?

>WAHHH!!! WHY DOESN'T ANYBODY GIVE A SHIT ABOUT *insert dumb obscure director only "known" for one movie* WAHHHHH!!!

Here’s a (You) for your shitty bait, hows summer vacation?

Completely correct. The Thing is his only worthwhile film. Halloween is as dull as they get, They Live is meme-tier, and the rest are forgettable.

put his wife in his films
dem titties!

He made some pretty good horror films that ended up being pretty influential, as well as being extremely profitable.
That said, most of his films aren't good, but unfortunately the internet made pretending to like "cult" films mainstream and cool. So you get people who swear on their mother that The Fog or Prince of Darkness is a timeless classic that still scares them today. Just one of those things.

Not that guy, but christine is easily one of his more obscure films. Of the few people who still remember it, most would only know it from the simpsons or futurama parodies, rather than having seen it.
If you were going to pick Carpenter films that people still care about, it should have been Little trouble, Escape from NY (trash) and maybe village of the dammed.

a fog that brings zombie pirates is far creepier than tentacle monsters though imo

What tentacle monsters?

OP is an underage faggot and overall plebeian retard. I feel sorry for you OP

more knockers
bravo John!

Wait, Christine, like the Stephen King novel?

Damn. Well this is one of those weird facts that I should have known forever but that somehow passed me by. And it's one of my favorite turn your mind off reads too. Nice.

This. Carpenter is a pleb filter.

if he would've stopped after LA, he would've been an icon. his further work proved him mortal

OP confirmed fag.

Ghosts of Mars is kino you fucking pleb.

John Carpenter has at least 5 kinos under his belt none of which are obscure

It's weird that zoomers probably know him more for his music now than his movies.

He did things his way and made some of the most entertaining and beloved films of his era. It's a shame he retired so early.

Are you one of those Tree of Life dick sucking faggots?

Tree of Life is a masterpiece and Carpenter is a very good director. I don't see the connection here.

hot fucking damn
JC is the Man

He makes cool movies and I'm pretty sure he wishes Hollywood would burn. I don't know why this upsets you.

When you make The Thing, nothing else matters. You've made the greatest horror movie of all time.

>watch The Thing on vhs
>this it's one of the best movies ever made
>check wikipedia years later
>bombed when it came out everyone hated it

ahead of it's time is the term to describe him

>dumb plots
>exposition every line of dialogue
>flat characters
do you know what a director is

Just finished In the Mouth of Madness. It was kino.

>John Carpenter
>Obscure

He's literally the most famous horror director ever.

JC is de man!

John Carpenter, if for nothing else, wrote some of the best original music in movies during that era. The fact that he was doing it for his own films makes him a goddamn legend.

>Faggots actually trying to claim that ghosts of mars is a good film.
There's being a poser and then there's that. I bet your retards haven't even watched it, have you?

Fuck you Carpenter is based

cope

The Thing was awesome and possibly his only good one that I remember enjoying.

>dumb plots
>exposition every line of dialogue
>bad at directing actors
>flat characters
this applies on most Spielberg movies as well
it's memorable, enjoyable, comfy B movies for having a simple watch. nobody claims he's some cinematic lynch-level mastermind. calm down and take that dildo out of your ass sometimes

this. OP is piece of shit.

Ghosts of Mars is the ultimate pleb filter. Constant heavy metal, inarticulate screaming and Jason Statham dies.

Almost everything he directed is gold, and even most of his lesser stuff is at least good
