series John Carpenter: Master of Fear
Directed by John Carpenter | 2001
With Natasha Henstridge, Ice Cube, Pam Grier
Dispatched to an abandoned Martian mining town to retrieve a serial killer (Ice Cube), a band of cops make a horrifying discovery: a phantom force that turns victims into goth-like zombies. Rife with winking allusions to Carpenter’s past oeuvre (especially Assault on Precinct 13), Ghosts of Mars giddily combines sci-fi, western, horror, and police movie tropes into a pure pleasure pulp shoot-em-up.
