Earlier this week, a Q&A session with horror master John Carpenter started making the rounds, particularly a segment where he addressed Rob Zombie’s 2007 Halloween remake.
After a fan asked what he thought about the remake, John Carpenter said that Rob Zombie lied about him, stating in a documentary that John Carpenter was “cold” towards him, while the filmmaker claims that he was nothing but supportive.
Last night, John Carpenter took to Twitter to release a brief statement about this feud, which he called “old news.”
In the New York Film Acdemy Q&A, John Carpenter said that Rob Zombie explained too much about Michael Myers, which took away the story’s mystique.
