Another excellent all-nighter at the Prince Charles this time celebrating the films of John Carpenter.
Assault on Precinct 13 is great, a tense shoot out between a mixmatch of characters and a gang outside. It's memorable to us videogaming nerds as providing the sample to Bomb the Bass's Megablast which found its way into Xenon 2.
Halloween is not my favourite in the franchise but it does have the creepy intro where the camera pans away from the young boy holding the knife.
The Fog was too slow for me but did bring back memories of being freaked by it when I watched it as a kid.
Escape From New York is a romp, so much fun with Donald Pleasance and Snake.
I've seen The Thing so many times now but it's still sooo good.
Big Trouble in Little China was a nice comedic break from the slow burns of the previous films.
and I fell asleep during They Live, due to me seeing it so many times and not being blown away by it ever...
