Horror Fans Freaking Out After John Carpenter Reveals He’s A Gamer

John Carpenter is rightly known as a master of horror. He’s responsible for classics like Halloween, The Thing, Prince of Darkness and They Live (not to mention kickass action movies Big Trouble in Little China, Escape From New York and Assault on Precinct 13). He’s also playing a major role in Blumhouse’s new Halloween trilogy, providing a new synth score for each movie. His work on Halloween (2018) was incredible and I can’t wait to see what he comes up over the next two years for Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends.

But today he’s getting a lot of positive buzz on social media due to his praise for the recently released Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla. This is the latest in the long-running Assassin’s Creed game series, with this instalment building on the open-world designs of Origins and Odyssey with a Viking twist. Carpenter seems to be loving it and has been praising it on Twitter:

The official Assassin’s Creed account was honored by the praise, saying:

Fans also chimed in, many surprised that the 72-year-old director knows his way around a controller:

Longtime Carpenter fans will know that he’s been a gamer for years. He’s previously mentioned in interviews that he got into the medium way back in the early 90s when he began playing his son’s copy of Sonic the Hedgehog on Genesis.

“I loved the game. I loved everything about it. I especially loved the music. There was something about the whole sound and feel of the Sonic games and suddenly I’m so much younger and it’s the ‘90s.”

He’s credited his history of gaming with keeping his mind and reflexes sharp and kept up with current releases. Over the summer he explained that he was a big fan of The Last of Us Part 2, saying: “It’s beautiful. So far I’ve done very little zombie killing. I’ve had a snowball fight and played guitar.”

I’d love to see him getting involved in making a game. There was a The Thing game on PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC in 2002 and he contributed to F.E.A.R. 3, but it’d be great to see something along the lines of Alien: Isolation but with Michael Myers stalking you. C’mon developers, let’s make it happen!
