My John Carpenter Top Ten

1) Escape from New York (1981) - bad ass action classic
2) Dark Star (1974) - very funny clever sci fi
3) John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars (2001) - I don't know anyone else who loves this movie but I do
4) Big Trouble in Little China (1986) - brilliant fun - how did this flop?
5) The Thing (1982) - I don't love this as much as the die hards but it's still pretty good
6) John Carpenter's Vampires (1998) - tough action horror flock
7) Assault on Precinct 13 (1976) - forget the remake this is the one to see
8) Halloween (1978) - I suppose
9) Christine (1983) - not among his most highly regarded films but I like it
10) Elvis (1979) - entirely decent biopic of the King
