I kind of agree with that.
Chistine wasn't so hot.
Starman bored me to tears.
Big Trouble in Little China - I know some people will disagree with this, but I thought it was really boring and just plain bad.
Prince of Darkness was another yawn fest. NOTHING HAPPENS IN IT!
They Live was another disappointment.
Memoirs of an Invisible Man, I don't think I even need to say anything about this one.
In the Mouth of Madness is another one of those movies where nothing happens.
Escape from LA? Just plain bad.
Vampires I actually thought was pretty good and that John Carpenter may be making a comeback, but then he made...
Ghost of Mars
I must say though, his Masters of Horror episodes were probably the best out of the bunch.

For me, John Carpenter has been failing for a long time.

Now, lets talk about Tobe Hooper...
