Anyway, to clear it up, if any of you possess the Director's commentary/interview disks of any/all 3 of the movies, you ll notice that John Carpenter mentions these 3 movies as a part of his official Apocalypse trilogy...sort of thematic trilogy which is a collective set of work. There are no recurring characters or official ties between the 3 movies, other than that all 3 movies share many of the same elements in their respective 3 endings.

Same goes for the Revenge/Vengeance trilogy, as Mr. Vengeance, Oldboy & Lady Vengeance run on the same parallel story-lines to be included together as a official group of collective work by the director, Park Chan Wook.



The Carpenter Apocalypse trilogy breezes to an easy 7-1 win over the asian Vengeance/ Revenge trilogy!!

next match up in a sec...

He could point a rocket launcher at his ass then pull the trigger and scream.
