As far as your Ridley Scott comment goes, you're definitely right, but if I focused a lot on people's quality to crap ratio I wouldn't have put John Carpenter on my list either. :D

Carpenters Classic 4 excuses a lot of his crap- just!

Wuh?

So what are your favorite Carpenter films? I haven't seen Dark Star and Assault on Precinct 13 yet but I certainly want to.

For me.

Good: Halloween, The Thing, They Live, Escape From New York, Starman, Big Trouble in Little China.

Ok: Christine, The Fog.

Baaaaaad: Vampires, Ghosts of Mars, Village of the Damned.

Molly: Mike Leigh, Akira Kurosawa, Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, Nagisa Oshima, Joel and Ethan Coen, Satyajit Ray, John Huston, Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, Ingmar Bergman

I love the great John Carpenter (Escape From New York, the Fog, Big Trouble, classic carpenter is a way of life) and Ridley Scott films, everybody does, but they both fell off for the most part.

I like Vampires! Hated Starman, Christine, Village Of The Damned, Escape From L.A, Ghosts Of Mars.

In The Mouth Of Madness, Body Bags and his 'Cigarette Burns' inclusion in the masters of horror series are all underated gems though.
