How's this for a change of pace: this week, we're talking about two films that John Carpenter didn't direct! However, both 1978's Eyes of Laura Mars and 1986's Black Moon Rising began their existence as Carpenter screenplays (both, eventually, re-worked by other writers), and we'd be missing out on a lot of Carpenter completionist cred if we didn't check them out! In a discussion that somehow ends up winding its way through early 80s west coast punk rock, the recent Suspiria remake, and the magnificent (and persistent!) uni-brow of Mr. Tommy Lee Jones, Chris and Nick seek out the nuggets of quintessential Carpenter in these two VHS-era movies -- and consider whether they're essential viewing for the filmmaker's fans.
