This fascinating and definitive book covers the ups and downs of Carpenter’s long career, from his film school beginnings with Dark Star (1974) through the huge financial success of Halloween to the controversial box-office flops of 1982’s The Thing and 1986’s Big Trouble in Little China – both movies that have now become cult favourites. As well as in-depth entries on each of his films, you will also find coverage of those produced by Carpenter, such as Halloween II (1981) and Black Moon Rising (1986), as well as lots of interesting information on his work for television in the likes of Body Bags (1993) and the Masters of Horror series (2005-2007).
