Same goes with Myers at the top of the staircase look down at us. Halloween – How can I not love every single still representing this masterpiece? The full size photo of Michael Myers (Nick Castle) holding up the huge butcher knife is classic. Former Fangoria Magazine Editor Tony Timpone is next and his story is very entertaining to read. John Carpenter writes the forward and the large photo of him smiling on the set of Halloween is telling for the way it turned out. Countless photos are spread over the connective pages to make you just stare and look each and every photo a read into the stories they tell. The inner covers of the book on the front and book are amazing. Seeing John Carpenter directing Jamie Lee Curtis on Halloween (one of my two favorite films), well you don’t get better than that in my opinion. There could not have been a better photo than the way chosen for the book’s cover. Photos of talented Director of Photography Dean Cundey, Camera/Panaglide Operator Ray Stella can be seen at work as well even James Cameron painting matte artwork and being Visual Effects Director of Photography on Escape From New York. You get to see many of the behind the scenes people that made these films so memorable. The passionate fun the cast & crew must have felt, along with the hard work is totally captured through Gottlieb-Walker’s lens. įor a John Carpenter fanatic like me, this is a goldmine as you can see the stories behind these productions. On Set with John Carpenter is absolutely loaded with rare, never before seen images from Halloween, The Fog, Escape From New York, Halloween II and Christine. They accomplish this with gorgeous layouts, high quality paper and overall design. What’s even better is the amount of care Titan Books has put into displaying Gottlieb-Walker’s fantastic photos. The fact that this book actually exists and is out has me thrilled beyond belief. I’ve anxiously been waiting for this book since I first reached out to Kim Gottlieb-Walker, which was September 2005.
