HALLOWEEN HORROR
MASTER CARPENTER
RETURNS
By Jeff McGinnis
Toledo Free Press Staff Writer
For many horror fans, Halloween
ouldnt be the same without the
orks of John Carpenter to keep
hem company.
he influential director helped sire
he modern slasher genre with
is seminal 1978 horror classic
Halloween. He also continued
o bring his wonderfully twisted
inematic vision to the screen in the
wo decades that followed.From The Thing, Escape from
ew York, Big Trouble in Little
hina, They Live and on and on
Carpenters work commands a
uge cult following and much of it can
e described as being definitively
head of its time.
hen, in 2001, he stopped.
Following the release of his sci-fi
eature Ghosts of Mars, Carpenter,
ho had been one of the most
rolific and consistent directors in
Hollywood, dropped off the map. Heouldnt direct a feature film again
or nearly 10 years, until the recent
elease of The Ward, a film about
haunted mental hospital.
hy the decade of delay?
I was burned out. Toasted.
Exhausted, Carpenter said. Id
been working steadily since the
1970s. I needed a break. The Ward
was the first movie ready to go when
I decided to go back to work.
He said the new films structure
intrigued him.
My experience working with an
ensemble cast was the biggest
attraction to this little ghost story.
Every day I spend on the set I
learn something. The talented
actresses, the advances in digital
technology, the challenges of low-
budget filmmaking ... every aspect
of directing The Ward gave me
enormous satisfaction, Carpenter
said.
During his career, Carpenter has
worked with numerous young actors
who would go on to bigger stardom
Jamie Lee Curtis, a post-Disney
Kurt Russell and The Wards
casting of Amber Heard, who with
roles in Drive Angry and The
Rum Diary seems poised to break
through to the next level, falls right
in line with that trend.
Amber is very beautiful and very
talented. Like everyone else in the
movie business, she has to deal with
whats offered. Its a treacherous
business and I think shes navigating
he storms quite well, Carpenter
aid.
Storms do not exempt Carpenter
from their wrath, however.
Entertainments ever-changing
business model is always looking
for the next big thing, often at theexpense of the legends who came
before. Now, as streaming video
begins to reign, the options for
filmmakers are becoming more
limited even for Carpenter.
These days, the DVD market has
shrunk from what it was, Carpenter
said. Downloading movies from the
Internet has shaken the traditions
of the movie business. Its getting
harder out there.
Another facet of entertainment is
its desire to cash in on valuablefranchises. Such is the case with
one of Carpenters most popular
films his 1982 horror opus The
Thing, about a group of researchers
in Antarctica who face an alien entity
which can imitate other living forms.
On Oct. 14, a new version of The
Thing was released, ostensibly
a prequel to Carpenters version,
though he said he had no input
into the new film.
I thought the idea of the Norwegian
camp was interesting, Carpentersaid of the new films setting. I wish
the filmmakers well and hope their
version of The Thing is a success.
Carpenters Thing first received
a cool reception from critics and
audiences, though as time passed
the 1982 film garnered a cult following
and has become recognized as a
genre classic.
The hopelessness of the situation
in The Thing was evident in the
story, Carpenter said of his films
bleak, unforgiving tone. Otherstories provoke different emotions
and ambience. There are really
no general rules about horror. It all
depends on the story.
He rejected the suggestion that on-
camera, practical effects, such as
the ones used in his 1982 film, are
more convincing than digital ones.
Used correctly, digital effects
are most powerful and a major
breakthrough in special effects.
I think of the dinosaur charge
across the valley in Jurassic Park.Breathtaking, Carpenter said.
As for Carpenter, it appears fans
wont have to wait another decade
to see another work by one of the
true masters of the macabre.
I have projects Im developing,
Carpenter said when asked what
was next for him. And Im in
mourning for the NBA season that
wont be.
Asked if he had any advice for
young filmmakers, Carpenter kept
his words short and true.Steel your spine and dig in for the
long haul. Dont give up.
DIRECTOR JOHN LANDIS
AUTHORS BOOK ON
MOVIE MONSTERS
By Jason Mack
TOLEDO FREE PRESS WEB
EDITOR
Director John Landis explores the
evolution of monsters from Edward
Scissorhands to Edward Cullen in his
book Monsters in the Movies: 100
Years of Cinematic Nightmares.
Landis is best known in the United
States for comedies such as Animal
House, The Blues Brothers and
Spies Like Us, but in England his1981 horror-comedy An American
Werewolf in London is a cult
classic.
While shooting Burke & Hare
in London and Edinburgh, I was
approached by several publishers to
write a book on horror films, Landis
said. I was separately approached
by Lauretta Dives of the Kobal
Collection, the largest collection of
film stills in the world, and thought of
this book. Monsters appear not only
in the horror genre, but in sciencefiction, fantasy and suspense, and it
is a much broader subject than just
horror.
The 320-page book is separated
into categories based on type of
monster. It features photographs
from the Kobal Collection as well
as interviews with those involved
with monster movies, such as Sam
Raimi, Guillermo Del Toro and
Rick Baker. Baker won an Oscar in
makeup design for his work on An
American Werewolf in London. Thetransformation of the main character
from man to werewolf was done
without the use of CGI. Their work
landed Landis and Baker the job of
creating Michael Jacksons Thriller
music video, and Landis later
embraced CGI when he directed
the video for Jacksons Black or
White.
Computer-generated imagery is just
another tool in the filmmakers box,
Landis said. From the earliest cave
paintings to the most sophisticated
CGI, humans still feel the need to
paint monsters.
He enjoys using CGI, but Landis was
happy to have made An American
Werewolf in London before the
technology was readily available.
Its a different time, and so many
films later it would be received
differently by a contemporary
audience, Landis said.
Its only natural for Landis to
chronicle the evolution of monsters
since his favorites range from giant
gorillas to reanimated corpses.
I have many favorites when it
comes to monsters and all fo
different reasons, Landis said.
As [Gremlins director] Joe Dante
points out in the book, monsters
are metaphors. Joe suggests agame; name the monster, name
the metaphor! A few of my favorite
monster movies are Frankenstein,
Island of Lost Souls, King Kong,
The Exorcist, Rosemarys Baby,
The Re-Animator, Jason and the
Argonauts, The Monster and The
Girl and Mighty Joe Young and so
many more.

EVARTS DOWNTOWN
DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
BOARD ACCUSED OF
VIOLATING OMA
By Jim Crees
Osceola Edition Editor
Evarts Downtown Development
uthority board is being held to
task for allegedly holding meetings
that one city resident claims should
have been posted and open to the
public.
Roger Elkins, a long-time Evart
resident, recently filed a letter
with the office of Osceola County
prosecutor James Sims, alleging
that the DDA board met on at least
three occasions without proper
public notification that meetings
had been called.
DDA board chair Alan Bengry said
the complaint is unfounded.
In his letter Elkins noted to Sims:
Please be advised the Evart
DDA meetings of October 13 and
October 19 appear to be in violation
of the Open Meetings Act.
October 13 was a special
board meeting for the purpose
of interviewing DDA Director
candidates and hearing apresentation from Wade Trim for an
infrastructure grant.
A special meeting would need
a posting of the meeting and the
purpose.
A notice of a special meeting was
not posted at the DDA office ...
Elkins claims the meeting was
not posted at any other municipal
facility.
He then noted he believed a meeting
held Oct. 4 was also in violation of
the law.
While hesitant to comment on the
complaint since it is still under
investigation, Bengry said Elkins
allegations were unjustified.
There was notice posted for the
Oct. 13 meeting, he reported.
The meeting of Oct. 19 is our
regular meeting, and that has been
posted publicly since the beginning
of the June as part of our regular
calendar.
Further in his complaint, Elkins
pointed out that four members
of the DDA had earlier met to
consider which of the DDA director
candidates to interview.
As a board there were no other
written comments of suggestions
from any of you, he wrote. In
essence this became a selection for
interviews by four board membersand not the entire board.
With a committee making a decision
for the entire board this may be a
violation of the Open Meetings Act.
The meeting was held without any
public notice.
Bengry disputed Elkins claims. On
Oct. 4, a committee met to discuss
the selection process, Bengry said,
but it was not a majority of board
members - four of nine members
- and it did not demand a posting
since no decisions were made or
action taken. It was not planned as
an meeting at which action would
be taken.
The entire board has offered input
in the selection process of a new
DDA director, he said.
Following his filing of a complaint
with the prosecutor, Elkins reported
he had checked numerous times
in advance of the interviews to
see when and where the meetings
would take place.
At no time, he pointed out, could he
find notice of a public meeting to be
held by the DDA.
Ive been told there were notices,
but I would like to see a copy of this
meeting announcement, Elkins
said. I dont know that anyone
tried to circumvent the process o
do anything under the table, but inmy opinion, someone needs to be
aware of what the Open Meetings
Act requires and to make sure
the DDA is in compliance with this
law.
Elkins noted there he felt there
were general irregularities with the
selection process that were simpl
highlighted by the alleged Open
Meetings Act violations.
I sometimes feel the DDA is running
roughshod over the people in thei
own community, he said. I wonde
if there was a legitimate mistake
here? Or what?
Elkins is an elected representative on
the county Board of Commissioners
from the Evart-area district. He
also was a candidate for the DD
directors job that was posted.
Prosecuting attorney James Sims
noted his office would be review the
complaint.
We will approach this complain
with careful consideration, he
said.
