John Carpenter is a seminal figure in the history of horror and science fiction filmmaking, whose work in these genres has been highly influential in their ongoing development. This book comprises essays that address the whole of his work as well as those that focus on a smaller number of key films. The collection draws upon the analysis of an international group of expert scholars; some take on wide-ranging issues such as Carpenter’s approach to remakes and the question of genre itself, while others focus on a specific theme or technical aspect of Carpenter’s filmmaking. Includes coverage of Assault on Precinct 13, Halloween, Escape From New York, Christine, Escape From L.A., The Fog, The Thing and Village of the Damned. The book also includes an exclusive interview with John Carpenter.

More Ghibli goodness, this time derived from the timeless My Neighbor Totoro.

Taken from the magical scene of the Miyazaki film where Totoro, Satsuki, and Mei wait for their respective buses in the rain, this display recreates it with incredible detail, also containing the rusted bus stop sign and the toad who looks on through the scene. Made with ATBC and ABS materials fixed onto a wooden display stand, this is certainly a figure set to treasure. With a display base approximately 6.5″ x 9″, this Totoro item also has an engraved plaque featuring the logo from the film in Japanese. This deluxe set is a very special tribute to an incredible movie that any Totoro fan will enjoy. Approved by Studio Ghibli.
