John Carpenter recalls some of the worst notes he ever got on his biggest movies: 'Note on the script for Halloween: 'This is not scary.' I’m not kidding. You just keep moving when you hear things like this.'
John Carpenter reveals the absurd notes he received from the studio for Halloween and Big Trouble In Little China. Carpenter kicked off his run as an iconic horror director with 1978’s Halloween, the movie that first introduced audiences to classic horror villain Michael Myers. But Carpenter was always much more than a horror director, as he proved when he unleashed 1986’s Big Trouble In Little China, a comic action-adventure movie that flopped in its day but went on to be a cult classic.
Note on the script for “Halloween”: “This is not scary.” I’m not kidding. You just keep moving when you hear things like this. “Big Trouble in Little China”: “Can we cut out the comedy in this?” Those are my two favorites. But, believe me, there is always something.
They want a movie with Dwayne Johnson. That's what they want. So they just picked that title. They don't give a sh*t about me and my movie. That movie wasn't a success. Why John Carpenter Thinks Halloween Isn’t Done Yet The Halloween franchise has famously been going on mostly without Carpenter’s direct input for many decades now. But Carpenter did at least give the recent David Gordon Green movies his stamp of approval, and made a contribution to the movies’ score. With Halloween Ends, it seems the franchise may finally have reached its end point, but don’t tell that to Carpenter, who believes Halloween will continue on.
