Got to say no DVD collection is complete without most of the ones you mentioned:
Escape from New York (not LA)
Halloween
The Thing
The Fog
Most will be A-OK without a copy of In the Mouth of Madness and Starman though!
Carpenters views and the music he mixed in made these movies something special...you could feel the dread in the Thing just from the constant "bom... bom... bom" music...and Halloweens themes is probably the most recognized movie "tune" in the world. Amazing how easy it is to recognize what movie of his(J Carpenter) it is, just from hearing the score...no one has done anything good like that lately, especially in horror...the first Crow movie itself had a rocking soundtrack...but the score blew.
