Comments on: John Carpenter Has Seizure At Spooky Empire http://fridaythe13thfilms.com/blog/john-carpenter-has-seizure-at-spooky-empire/ News & Updates for fridaythe13thfilms.com Sat, 11 Dec 2024 08:17:56 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Tommy_Jarvis_Guy http://fridaythe13thfilms.com/blog/john-carpenter-has-seizure-at-spooky-empire/comment-page-1/#comment-277006 Tommy_Jarvis_Guy Thu, 14 Oct 2024 01:16:49 +0000 http://fridaythe13thfilms.com/blog/?p=12845#comment-277006 I agree with Mr. Pete: I believe it's fine if every few weeks or so, as long as this talk is old school Friday/Jason Voorhees-centric and heavy, then major up-setting confirmed news about out legendary series helmers (although Holy Hell, Mr. Carpenter is a flat out genre fil legend and Widescreen film maker legend period, if we're all gonna talk like film buffs here). And I agree: Without him and the late/great Debra Hill co-writing and directing and producing the original almighty Halloween, there wouldn't be a Friday the 13th series, as Sean Cunningham said to Victor Miller (enthusianstically no less) a telephone call exclaimation indeed of "Let's rip it off!" they talked about both on the original's Blu Ray as well as the Crystal Lake Memories book. (although a bit off topic, like Mr. Pete, after the underrated Halloween 4 and feeling that Halloween 6 ridiculous flaws and all was an interesting flanel clad mid '90s Slasher, I really don't care too much for the rest of the series at all myself, but some are okay for Slasher entries. Don't know why but I always prefered the first four or so Friday installments as well.) I'm most certainly glad to hear that Mr. Carpenter is back and appears to be fully recovered. Like me he appears to be much less dopey and thankfulyl much more classy and much more private as directors are (which is a good thing in my book), and so since we all don't know if this is a pre-disposed family condition that is in his genes or not, I sincerly hope that he was feeling better hours later. Let us all pray that horrible day a few days back now was some type of strange reaction and an isolated incident.

Let's not forget Halloween influenced F13th, Sean Cunningham said it himself that"We're gonna rip off Halloween." I prefer F13th over Halloween regardless. I do hope John Carpenter makes a full recovery. That certainly is unfortunate to hear & there’s no reason why a different horror film can’t be mentioned once in awhile on this site.

Talk about hardcore! He seemed to be doing well. Yup, John was back in action signing at 10am the next morning and hosted an hour long panel later in the day. Talk about hardcore!

Without John Carpenter this wouldn't be possible. I am praying that he is ok. And I never pray. So that's how much this means to me. Thank you for posting this Jason F. See, why doesn't Yahoo news ever report important stuff like this??? No...they're too damn busy posting shit about stupid Lindays Lohan's 23148237489123948712th stint in rehab or how one of the Jersey Shore twats is in trouble with the law.
