    I just realized something about Stephen ... he isn't just an interviewer; he's a FAN, and there is so much joy in his questions that he makes the interview look like nothing more than two long-time friends chatting about the things they enjoy, without worrying about an audience. THAT is a gift!

      I like when his eyes light up like that and you can tell he's happy to dig in. Back on Colbert Report he had on The Flaming Lips and was beside himself with excitement. During the interview he told the singer his music was like leading someone deep into the forest on shrooms and ditching them there. You could tell that's what he liked about it. Very funny

      @@JchollaI love that film but I can understand why, he wanted nothing to do with it and only did it out of obligation. He got through the writing process via a 6-pack of beer a night. Obviously there was some level of care that went into it as he composed the score and was in charge of the reshoots, but ultimately I’d say his heart was barely in it. It got in the way of projects he actually wanted to do. It’s a great film and a worthy sequel but he’s got every right to feel otherwise.

    I prefer when this unique director is in Q&A sessions with fans at various film festivals. He is not the most eloquent person and his answers are always simple, direct and to the point. Humble, sometimes too much, he never gives himself too much credit. In long sessions where he can express himself at greater length, he ends up forming interesting responses. But in short situations like this, where the guests have to practically master the art of one-liners, a straight-forward-no-bulls**t- person like him isn't at his best.

      John is a straight up master when he’s really involved, but when he’s disinterested you can sort of tell, his worst films feel tired and lethargic. With that being said, his last film wasn’t at all terrible in spite of that directorial fatigue.

      Had Vampires been released in the '80's (let's say) between Big Trouble in Little China and They Live, it would be fully embraced today as further evidence of his iconic '76-'88 run.

    The Thing is great and a fav, but the scariest of John's films (for me) has got to be Prince of Darkness. I saw it in the theater and judging by the audience reaction, many folks would agree with me.

    The first time I saw Halloween was on freaking acid. Had just gotten cable that day. Buddy comes over with some gels, and take them with our gf's when we went to get them.
    Got home, they took couch, me and my gf in recliner. Turn on HBO. Did not know it was Halloween as we started after Michael takes out his sister and parents came home. PIECE OF ADVICE??? NEVER, EVER WATCH HALLOWEEN TRIPPIN. 😂😂😂
    Side note: swear this is true. Girls go to leave. Want us to walk you home? No, it's cool. They leave. Bout a minute later we hear them screaming running up the stairs, pounding on door. We let them in. They tell us there is a strange guy in lobby with knife. Ya sure. We loved playing jokes on each other. We go down to check it out.
    Sure enough, landlord Andre, who looks like a cross of Danny Devito and Pee Wee Herman sharpened them as a side gig, was standing there with a huge butcher knife he had just sharpened for downstairs tenant.

    I don’t know if The Thing really is Steve’s favorite movie, but he is convincing enough to make the interview more entertaining. I never believe Fallon’s ‘enthusiasm’.

    A very special thank you to the great John Carpenter who gave me the opportunity to share my story in John Carpenter's "Suburban Screams. " You can see my story in episode 6, " Phone Stalker. " I'm forever grateful to have worked with the iconic horror master. Thank you to everyone who tuned in. Your support is greatly appreciated!

    When Colbert interviews as a fan you get to see the old him and not the new “I’ll do anything for money” version.

    I don't know if he does it all the time but I know of at least once where Dario Argento directed from afar as well. My father had a bit part in a film of Argento's called "Trauma" back in 1993 that was filmed in Minneapolis. Argento came to the city to set everything up, interview actors to cast the film, scout locations, etc. but then flew back to Italy and directed by phone telling his assistant and second unit directors who were stationed in Minneapolis what he wanted.

      Dang that's crazy. That'd be cool if your dad got to shoot the breeze with Dario Argento though. Still a cool experience either way.

      @@mattdad8429 You would think but, typical dad story, he had no idea who Argento was. He just answered an audition call and met him and chatted for about an hour (with an interpreter) and got hired. When he told me I almost plotzed. My dad was a semi-pro actor but just in the Minneapolis area. So, as you might have guessed, he also had small parts in all of the Prince films (except "Purple Rain"). Now *Prince* he knew, but Argento? Nope.

      @@tedsperos1620 That's so funny when people meet celebrities, but they don't really know who they are, then they tell someone who's an avid fan and they're like completely bowled over about their casual run-in. I bet he does have some good stories though from over the years. Sounds like a very interesting life whether he knows it or not lol
