John Carpenter Live Retrospective (2018)

Back in 2016, John Carpenter and his band embarked on a world
tour, performing all the classic cuts from his movie soundtracks
as well as a selection of songs from his two Lost Themes
albums. Sadly, Chris and Nick missed all of those shows, but the
John Carpenter Live Retrospective Blu-Ray
from Storm King Productions is as close as we could get to
actually being there. For our first episode of 2021, we take a
look at this one-of-a-kind concert film, a must-have for fans of
John Carpenter's composing and a rare glimpse of John Carpenter,
unlikely rock star (for better and, certainly, for worse, this
ain't no Coupe De Villes!). Along with our thoughts on that, we
also get into the filmographies of two other masters of horror
whose careers paralleled Carpenter's in some surprising ways --
and dream up an idea for a concert tour that NEEDS to happen when
we can all go see live music again!
