I have to say as being a fan of the man who created Halloween/The Fog/Christine/The Thing - probably his best films.
Then you got this POS. I can't logically think he put any effort at all into this like he did with Cigarette Burns. At least his son made a decent soundtrack.
You have to look at this from the standpoint that it didn't seem like a movie. It looked as if someone else directed it for one thing. I won't believe Carpenter put any effort into this at all.
I was just listening to his old school H2/H3/The Fog soundtrack and it was awesome, especially for the times.
He was using a style that no one had and it worked so well for his films.
