Craven or Carpenter
 

Who is the bigger genre heavyweight Craven or Carpenter ?

I posted my first thread and the question sucks, sorry for the incompetents I will reword it

Who is the biggest influence of the horror genre Craven or Carpenter ?

I would say Carpenter as if we didnt have Halloween, horror wouldnt be the same

I agree ,
When Craven did the Scream movies I wonder if he was paying homage to a genre that Carpenter created.

nothing beats the thing, nothing, not even freddy

john carpenter
best movie-halloween
wes craven
best movie--nightmare on elm street






halloweens the greatest horror movie ever made and nightmare on elm street is the second best so carpenter is the best in my book

Damn Strait!:) Carpenter rocks!

yup im gonna have to go with carpenter as well on this :) love the halloween movies

I dont think I could pick one over the other....

I'd have to go with Carpenter. The man did make great films such as Halloween, The Thing, They Live, Prince of Darkness, Big Trouble in Little China, Escape from... and In the Mouth of Madness. Therefore, I think he's superior to Craven.

i thought clive barker did in the mouth of madness?? i could be wrong though
