Stanley Kubrick with MVP’s Inspirational Filmmaker’s Quote of the Week.
Stanley Kubrick with Tom Cruise on the set of Eyes Wide Shut.
“How could we possibly appreciate the Mona Lisa if Leonardo Da Vinci had written at the bottom of the canvas, ‘The lady is smiling because she is hiding a secret from her lover’? This would shackle the viewer to reality, and I don’t want this to happen to 2001.”
~~Stanley Kubrick

John Carpenter speaks at FNFF 2011.
The Mutantville Players had the honor of meeting John Carpenter at the recent Fright Night Film Fest in Kentucky. We made the eight hour plus trip out to Louisville to talk to one of our filmmaking idols and one of the true Masters of Horror and it was well worth it. Carpenter has largely been absent from the horror world over the past decade – appearing long enough to participate in the Masters of Horror experiment on Showtime and also acting as a consultant for the F.E.A.R. series of video games on XBOX – so fans such as myself are happy to see him out promoting his latest effort The Ward at conventions and festivals across the country.
On Saturday at the event, Carpenter accepted questions directly from the crowd and MVP was there. No need to worry if you couldn’t make the trip – we’ve recorded it and uploaded it to the Mutantville Players Youtube account for you to enjoy. So – enjoy!

Italian Maestro Dario Argento just finished shooting his latest film Dracula 3D starring Rutger Hauer, Asia Argento, Tomas Krestchmann and a whole bunch of people that I’ve never heard of but that’s alright, because I have heard of the director.
