Carpenter's early films included critical and commercial successes such as ''Halloween'' (1978), ''The Fog'' (1980), ''Escape from New York'' (1981), and ''Starman'' (1984). Though he has been acknowledged as an influential filmmaker, his other productions from the 1970s and the 1980s only later came to be considered cult classics; these include ''Dark Star'' (1974), ''Assault on Precinct 13'' (1976), ''The Thing'' (1982), ''Christine'' (1983), ''Big Trouble in Little China'' (1986), ''Prince of Darkness'' (1987), ''They Live'' (1988), ''In the Mouth of Madness'' (1994), and ''Escape from L.A.'' (1996). He returned to the ''Halloween'' franchise as a composer and executive producer on ''Halloween'' (2018), ''Halloween Kills'' (2021), and ''Halloween Ends'' (2022).
Carpenter usually composes or co-composes the music in his films. He won a Saturn Award for Best Music for the soundtrack of ''Vampires'' (1998) and has released four studio albums: ''Lost Themes'' (2015), ''Lost Themes II'' (2016), ''Anthology: Movie Themes 1974–1998'' (2017), and ''Lost Themes III: Alive After Death'' (2021). Since 2012, he has co-owned the comic book company Storm King Comics alongside his wife, film producer Sandy King. Provided by Wikipedia
