Hello out there, and welcome back! As promised, Chris and Nick
have returned with an all-new episode to discuss
Halloween Ends, the final film in David
Gordon Green's sequel trilogy that's now out in theaters and on
Peacock. Like every Halloween fan out
there, we've got some thoughts on this unique and highly divisive
horror film, featuring an original score by John Carpenter (with
his usual collaborators Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies) as well
as what is -- supposedly -- the very last on-screen appearance of
Jamie Lee Curtis as babysitter, massacre survivor, and, uh,
pumpkin pie baker Laurie Strode. We really enjoyed being back to
talk all things Carpenter once again, and we hope you'll join us
for an in-depth, occasionally rather heated talk about the final
(?) chapter in the franchise that he and Debra Hill kicked off
back in 1978. Enjoy, and, if you're a horror fan, please join us
on our new show, The Shuddering
(shudderingpod.simplecast.com)!
Be warned: MAJOR SPOILERS for
Halloween Ends beginning at 36:10
on this episode! They conclude at 1:21:25.

We're BACK -- and sooner, rather than later! After wrapping up
the show proper, we promised to check back in any time there was
a good reason to do so, and the recent release of
Firestarter is exactly that! Why, you
ask? Well, most importantly, the Stephen King adaptation features
a brand new score composed by none other than John Carpenter, and
it features his regular collaborators Cody Carpenter and Daniel
Davies from his album, soundtrack, and live concert projects.
Plus, the film was written by Halloween
Kills scribe Scott Teems, and -- as we're sure
you've heard us talk about -- back in the early 80s, Carpenter
himself was originally tapped to direct the earlier
Firestarter film that ended up in the
hands of another director. So, those were more than enough
reasons for Chris and Nick to get back into the saddle and revive
the show for what we hope is the first of MANY returns to the
Carpenter-centric conversation! So, join us for this "bonus"
episode, and please check out our new podcast, The
Shuddering, when it launches very soon!

Well, everybody, this is it! On this extra-special (and
extra-lengthy) episode of Precinct 13, Chris and Nick
reveal the top seven films in their Carpenter rankings -- and cap
off our three-part sort-of series finale with a look back at some
of our favorite stuff. We also welcome back Megan Mosley, who you
might remember from our Halloween and
The Fog episodes from way back when, to
share her own rankings and thoughts on the Carpenter canon. We
hope you enjoy this look back at everything we've done over the
past few years on the show, and please stay subscribed! We'll be
back any time there's something new to talk about in the world of
filmmaker, composer, and all-around fascinating creative talent
John Carpenter. Thank you all for listening, and please share
with us your thoughts on the show, your own Carpenter rankings,
or anything else that's on your mind! And, hey, if you like what
we do around here, check out our new show, The Shuddering,
coming soon -- we're on Facebook and Twitter
@ShudderingPod if you'd like to stay
informed as we get set to launch!

The knock-down-drag-out Carpenter-ranking extravaganza continues
this week as Chris and Nick share their next round of picks (the
middle of their lists) and returning guest Josh Mosley gives us
his takes on all 23 films! Once again, the good, the bad, and the
silly in the John Carpenter filmography get discussed, along with
a few of this year's Oscar nominees, an Elvis impersonator who's
got nothing on Kurt Russell, and some further details of your
hosts' next podcasting endeavor. This is the second-to-last
episode of the show proper (though we'll be back whenever the
occasion presents itself), so enjoy and be sure to join us again
in a few weeks as we close things out with our very favorite
Carpenter films!

We're back again, and the time has finally come to unveil our
rankings of all of the John Carpenter-directed films we've
covered since Precinct 13's humble
beginnings in the fall of 2019! This week's show is part one of
our three-part "final" episode extravaganza (more on that in just
a second), and we're welcoming back two-time guest host Alexandra
Wiles to share her own rankings of all of the Carpenter films.
Chris and Nick, meanwhile, share their bottom eight -- some of
which you probably have already figured out, others that might be
a little bit of a shocker -- and you can hear the rest of their
lists as we look back and close out the show over the next few
episodes! As we've mentioned several times before, this isn't
quite the end of Precinct 13, but now
that we've covered all of the Carpenter movies, we'll be moving
on to a whole new show (a few details of which we'll
reveal on this episode...) and periodically checking back
whenever something new happens in the Carpenter universe. So, sit
back and enjoy, send your own Carpenter rankings to us
precinct13podcast@gmail.com, and stay tuned for our
favorites in the weeks ahead!
