#Face of mars ghost movie
You can virtually see the edge of the sets half the time, we are talking TV movie standards here people!. Everything also looks really really poor, terrible sets, terrible effects and makeup work and why are the good guys all wearing ski masks?. In this there is none of that craftsmanship, it really does feel as if John has sold out and given us a loud cliched straight to DVD action flick with no real thought or imagination. Naturally with Carpenter it looks cheap, everything is normally basic but created well with clever lighting, camera angles and editing. The heavy metal stuff just feels too errr.heavy for what the film is, it tries to force the action and gore upon you with loud thrashing music which just seems childish really. So yes the tunes are all Carpenters work as usual but it just didn't have the cool quirky simple electronic vibes you associate with his films. For a start the soundtrack was a lot of actual heavy metal performers playing pieces created by Carpenter.

You know its Carpenter straight away with most of his films but this was different. Alongside a couple other action thrillers earlier in 2000 this horror thriller was obviously a more fantasy based trip to the red planet courtesy of John Carpenter. Yep back near the millennium there was a bit of a Mars movie rush.
