Carpenter Week Wrap-up

Well- it's been fun delving into the annals of Carpenter eclectica. There will be several more Carpenter weeks in the future, whereupon I'll get to key achievements in his filmography from ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13 to STARMAN to DARK STAR to VAMPIRES; movies that he wrote but didn't direct, like EL DIABLO, EYES OF LAURA MARS, and SILENT PREDATORS; and random bizarro stuff like the album WAITING OUT THE 80's, films by Carpenter cronies, and perhaps some novelizations of his canon films. Below are pasted links to every Carpenter article on this site thus far, but right before- I thought I'd share one last exciting Carpenter factoid: Carpenter was at one time involved with CLUE?!:

From the Hollywood Reporter: Oct. 23, 1980:

Carpenter, Hill plan 'Clue' after N.Y. 'Escape'
Principal photography was completed here yesterday a week ahead of schedule on the third and highest-budgeted feature thus far made by the team of horror master John Carpenter and producer Debra Hill.
Hill told The Hollywood Reprter that she hoped thisproduction would lead both herself and Carpenter away from the horror genre. "Even THE FOG was supposed to be simply a ghost story, but our critics wanted us to compete with HALLOWEEN," she said. HALLOWEEN, coauthored by the team, was shot in only 20 days on a $300,000 budget.
Hill said she would like to move on to the production of westerns and musicals in addition to terror films. To this end, she has bought the rights to CLUE, a Parker Brothers game, and she plans to make a whodunit for Polygram and Universal.
"We are going to use the characters from the game and invent a new character, Detective Parker, who will solve the crime. I want it to go along the route of suspense with comic relief. I don't want to make another Neil Simon or Agatha Christie mystery," she said.

And for the record, Debra Hill did end up co-producing, but- as far as I know- Carpenter had no involvement.
