  • Prince of darkness, the thing, mountains of madness - aka the apocalypse trilogy - is a great triple bill, if you have the stamina.

    Halloween is still my favourite Carpenter, but it’s so close run with The Thing that it’s like choosing which of my kids I love the most.

    I think Halloween edges it because it did that thing where an artist creates a genre and perfects it at the same time. Halloween spawned so many slasher imitations, but none of them - even the genuinely good ones - lay a sharp pointy knife on the original.
