Ghosts of Mars is currently John Carpenter’s penultimate film. It came out in 2001, when the American director was just 53 years old, and it was so badly received that he practically retired from the scene and didn’t direct anyt other movie for nine years (when he made The Ward, 2010). But is Ghosts of … More Ghosts of Mars: Movie Review
Barge of the Dead (La barca dei morti), terzo episodio della sesta stagione di Star Trek: Voyager, ha B’Elanna Torres come protagonista.

Vediamo uscire sangue dal pezzo di metallo trovato da B’Elanna … More Star Trek: Voyager – S06E03, La barca dei morti
Village of the Damned is John Carpenter’s second remake and came out in 1995, thirteen years after his first one, The Thing (1982).

For example, Batman at that time was Adam West who some days just … More Swamp Thing: Movie Review

1995 was a particularly prolific year for Quentin Tarantino. Among other things, it was the year in which the weird From Dusk Till Dawn came out, based on a script that he wrote for 1,500 dollars kinda as an excuse for Robert Kurtzman’s special effects rather than to write a cinematic masterpiece (in fact, it’s deliberately a … More From Dusk Till Dawn: Movie Review
Il 1995 fu un anno particolarmente prolifico per Quentin Tarantino. Tra le altre cose, lavorò a quella bestia strana di From Dusk Till Dawn, Dal tramonto all’alba che uscì nel 1996.

John Carpenter was awarded with the Carrosse d’Or at the 2019 edition of the Cannes Film Festival. In the masterclass that accompanied the ceremony, and in order to continue to make himself adored by everyone in Hollywood, he defined himself as the anti-Spielberg.
