Last and sadly least of John Carpenter's movies. To be fair, the directing is very good. But this isn't a Carpenter script, a Carpenter soundtrack or a Carpenter edit. This wasn't the glorious return to directing a feature that his fans had hoped for after his two excellent "Masters of Horror" episodes. Instead it was a pretty generic horror story with some good directing that never once felt like a John Carpenter movie.
