Does John have it in him? Scott and I were talking about The Ward in Christianne's What Horror Movies Did You Watch Last Week thread On Sunday night after I had posted to his weekly line-up review for the last movie Carpenter directed. He had mentioned like others that The Ward just was not a return to form as he so hoped, and I recall that sentiment quite common among many horror fans, a general consensus lamenting that perhaps he doesn't have another great one in him. I guess some directors would like to have just one great horror film, so if Carpenter never makes another film, at least he has that. It was funny, I didn't know Carpenter contributed to the soundtrack of Planet Terror--I guess I will have to pop that dvd in one night and give a listen. I think I will watch The Ward this week, although it looks like more overtime at work could cause complications. If anything I can gaze at Amber Heard for a while...

Regarding this blog entry's title movie, I know that its origins derive from a comic character, but I'm not familiar with the character or her adventures, so there will be no expectations in that regard.
