John Carpenter with MVP’s Inspirational Filmmaking Quote of the Week!
“When somebody who makes movies for a living — either as an actor, writer, producer or director — lives to be a certain age, you have to admire them. It is an act of courage to make a film — a courage for which you are not prepared in the rest of life. It is very hard and very destructive. But we do it because we love it.”
~~John Carpenter
Check out John Carpenter’s latest film The Ward now playing on VOD. Come meet John Carpenter at this year’s Fright Night Film Fest in Kentucky on July 22 – 24th.

Val Tanner's Top 5 Enemies of Silent Hill Video.
Streebo has been finding time to relax between shooting and producing G.H.O.S.T. by kicking back with Silent hill: Homecoming on the XBOX 360. This is the first Silent Hill game that I’ve been able to play for an extended period of time despite the fact that I’ve owned Silent Hill 1 through 3 over the years. The new controls make the game more user friendly for a geek like me that enjoys more action oriented games. Needless to say – the atmosphere and visuals rule the day in Silent Hill. I love the look, sound and feel of this game and find myself addicted to it. Enjoy some Silent hill craziness with me by watching this video featuring some of the more interesting villians of the series of games.

The Good Critic Dr. Geoff Klock Defends Tarantino's Latest From the Evil Critics.
Dear David Denby,
In discussing the way Inglourious Basterds invokes film and filmmakers — Goebbles, the Art Deco theatre, the cinemaphile characters (including actors and actresses, theatre owners and projectionists, and critics) and the Basterds themselves (“A kind of Jewish Dirty Dozen”) you write, “Tarantino has gone past his usual practice of decorating his movies with homages to others. This time, he has pulled the film-archive door shut behind him — there’s hardly a flash of light indicating that the world exists outside of a nutbrain fable.”
I don’t understand why creating what Tolkien called a “secondary world” should be such a problem. I understand that that is a different project from trying to make a film “about something” (rather than a film that “is that something itself”); I fail to see why the former is necessarily better than the latter. I am also puzzled why of all people a film critic should be so bothered by a film that is soaked in films. It seems to cater to those of us that love film. Also: there are so many plays about plays for example, including Midsummer Night’s Dream — are they all deficient on principle as well?
