John Carpenter’s Apocalypse Trilogy: Welcome to the End of the World

John Carpenter didn't just make horror movies—he had a knack for making us question how much control we really have. From the paranoia of The Thing to the science-meets-religion nightmare of Prince of Darkness and the Stephen King-inspired Lovecraftian madness of In the Mouth of Madness, Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy takes us straight to the end of the world. The best part? The apocalypse doesn't always arrive with a bang. Sometimes it starts quietly… and then everything falls apart.
