It's the kind of film that appears to have been made by filmmakers who don't understand a thing about storytelling, pacing, tone, or atmosphere, which is only made all the more shocking by the fact that it was directed by the legendary John Carpenter.

A good-looking, well-wrought film with some knockout special effects, some dark humor and crisp portrayals.
