"In England, I''m a horror movie director. In Germany, I''m a filmmaker. In the US, I''m a bum." - John Carpenter

John Carpenter

 

Welcome to the John Carpenter Forum. An Unofficial site dedicated to the director of such films as Halloween, Assault On Precinct 13, Escape From New York, The Thing and Big Trouble In Little China.

This site was created in May 2005 since there were no forums for John Carpenter and his films. This was done in the hopes of bringing like-minded people to discuss the good and bad of the directors career as well as other directors and films.

The forum has boards devoted to each of his films from Dark Star all the way to Ghosts Of Mars, unfinished projects, the Halloween series and Masters Of Horror, so fans of just one film to all of John Carpenter''s work can be involved. You can also discuss John Carpenter''s music, production, writing and talk about the many great actors and production crew he has worked with. 

We also have articles related to John Carpenter and a media centre with videos, scripts, interviews and much more. You can also review any of his films and add to any sections on the site.

Please remember the forum is moderated and any inappropriate posts will be removed.

 

Thank you and enjoy.

Monster Mania, August 20th 2010 was the day that John Carpenter met the cast of EFNJ. Director Chris .R. Notarile presented Mr. Carpenter with a special DVD of the web series, and introduced him to the new Snake Plissken. Never in a million years did I ever think that this day would ever come, but with the grace of GOD we all made it. Below is the pic of this incredible meeting.

John Carpenter Quotes
I made a decision back in 1978 that, in a trade off for money when I directed Halloween, I would have my name above the title in order to basically brand these movies my own.
