Director John Carpenter was the highlight of the 20th Monster Mania Convention held in Hunt Valley, MD, this weekend. His early films are cult classics including Assault on Precinct 13, Halloween, Escape from New York, and The Thing remake. When asked if he and frequent star Kurt Russell will reunite, he did not know except that Russell was still alive so who knows? Other stars included Anthony Michael Hall (TV's The Dead Zone and films 16 Candles and The Breakfast Club), P.J. Soles (Carrie, Halloween, and Rock n' Roll High School), veteran Joe Tukel (Paths of Glory, The Shining, and Blade Runner) ,Ernie Hudson (Ghostbusters, The Crow) and many more.
There were plenty of vendors selling movie and TV memorabilia and horror related makeup, props, and paraphenalia. The attendence was good and a good time was had by all it seems.
