Happy Birthday, John Carpenter!

John Carpenter turns 60 years old today! In his honor, here's a little visual poem I've constructed of some of my favorite things from his work...

  1. I have a friend who dated John Carpenter for a few months, after he split up with Adrienne Barbeau (whose picture you've included). She's a born-again Christian now, go figure... he did a number on her. She says he was a freak in the bedroom (surprised?)

  2. Hee, that story just made my day, jillybean. Thanks!

    I have to say I am a little surprised he's freaky in bed; I'd have thought he got his weirdness out in his films and then went home and knit place-mats or something. Guess he's got too much freak on the inside to ever get rid of! Which I applaud, of course. Driving someone to religion though... yikes! ;-)

  3. Wonderful!

    All that's missing is a video of The Silver Shamrock ad.

  5. Cool. You included Big Trouble in Little China, one of the more overlooked of Carpenter's movies.
