The fog and Assault on Precinct 13 are two films that have marked me as an individual, but Halloween, Escape from New York and In the mouth of madness score beside them also;yet the first two are always my candidates-together with Polanski's Cul-de-sac, for the title of my favourite film of all time!

It's hard to tell.
Almost every movie shot between the late 70's and late 80's is excellent.
I pick 3:
They Live
Halloween
The Thing
honorable mention:
Big Trouble in Little China
Escape from N.Y.
Christine (this is probably the most "Carpenterian" of all: music, cinematography, and atmosphere at its best! -

You are all a bunch on commercial bastards and should go back to school you predictable idiots.
Every single one of you numb nuts went for commercial films only made for Sales / Turnover / Profit purpose. Not two of you from the beginning post from October 2010 ever thought to mention
Someone's Watching Me (1978) also known as High Rise.
Amazing stalker murder triller film, well shot, creates a deep effect.
Its actually a classic now.
Urgh makes me sick, bunch of commoners -

My heart says
Halloween
, the first John Carpenter that I saw.
However, my head says
The Thing
. An incredible accomplishment on anyone's CV.
You can't palm off a second-rater on me. You gotta remember I was in the pink! -

Another remake/sequel to HALLOWEEN? Really?
Here's five films by Carpenter that could benefit from a reboot.
