Saw this in the theaters and loved it. Still do. An outpost on Mars? An ancient, alien force that possesses people and drives them to commit atrocities. A badass team of protagonists just trying to live through the next few hours. This is the best adaptation of Doom, to hit the big screen, despite having nothing to do with that property.
This movie is great! Forgotten gem even! Showed this to a group of my friends a while back during weekend movie night, none of them had ever heard of it. When it was over, they loved it. We all pretty much agreed that it is a better possession movie than most of the crap released in the past decade. Now it's in the cycle for our annual Halloween movie list LOL
My buddy and I saw this opening night. There was ONE other person in the theater. We loved it. I hunted down the soundtrack, and still rock out to it to this day. One of the tracks is called "Pam Grier's Head." Fantastic.
Natasha henstridge is one of the top 5 most beautiful women in human history, absolutely stunning!!I can't believe she didn't have an even bigger career than she did because she also is a damn fine actor.
Don't care what so-called critics said I enjoyed this movie and it is one of my favorite guilty pleasures PS I would like to see a updated movie...that would be cool 😁
Like you I have always avoided this film because I was afraid of hating it. Now not caring about critics and not liking anything recent to come out, plus having your some what approval, I will check it out.
This movie's plot-line has a lot of potential. There's something so engaging about demonic invaders closing in on a desperate and small band of survivors in a desolate setting, culminating in action and hijinks. Parallels Aliens in a lot of ways, but obviously falters in the quality department. I will always remember this movie after seeing it as a child via rental VHS with my bro back in the day. Good times. Simpler times. Ty for the vid.
My dad rented this movie by accident and we watched it when I was 12. I've loved it ever since, it's one of my guilty pleasures. We need more sci-fi horror
A lot of people would be better off just watching the movie first before looking up reviews or things. I watched this when it came on back then and loved it. To me it was off the walls horror with known people I loved seeing.
That’s how i came across this movie. I was changing the channels on cable and I came across it. I let 35min pass and I was like, what is this mess. I was surprised and shocked to learn that it was a John Carpenter film
I took a college course "Westerns in film" and among the classics we analyzed, the final film we covered was Ghosts of Mars, as it parallels many of the same tropes as the western genre (Natives vs invading pioneers, etc.) And honestly I've held it in high regard ever since.
Writer of the episode here…I’m glad to see so many come to defense of this movie. Like it was mentioned in the video,I didn’t see it until last month. I had an absolute blast with it. Was it a good movie? Nah. But did it keep me entertained? Damn right. I’m a man of cheese, and Carpenter sliced up a giant piece of it.
Your backstory to the film actually makes me wanna watch it now. I’ve stayed away from it for years as it looked kinda cheap and unworthy of such a great like Carpenter. Also I didn’t know he was a gamer. But picture this, if he’s gonna step back into the director’s chair, why not (and this might be crazy) but why not direct a video game?
there should be a gofundme to reedit this into a proper carpenter movie, not some genx hacker on extasy crap or what ever was the studio cooks in the kitchen plan to hipsterize carpenter.
Some Carpenter fans said this was originally supposed to be Escape From Earth , the third of a Snake Plisken series . It was a tough movie for John Carpenter make because his mother died during the making and maybe some studio interference .
i feel like this one was some studio lackeys screwing up what could have been a masterpiece if made 10 years earlier. there was this hip cyber punk vibe at play i really dont appreciate. watch hackers, and the trailer for event horizon. hollywood thought movies had to feel like a london techno rave. i think if you had john record a score, messed with the lighting so it doesnt scream tv studio and found the broll gore, you could make something with a more hellraiser meets classic rock in space outlaw film. but i remember watching this and it felt like my childhood ended. i would have even taken an gangster rap sound track. i really hate that "editor is on meth" vibe i got from this movie.
I can't help but love this movie. It's just too much damn fun. It's a Paul Veerhoven style romp, completely tongue in cheek, and flying over general audiences heads. Also... why is Norm Mcdonald narrarating?
I actually liked the movie. I knew it was cheese and camp at the time, but in all the best ways. This one definitely has a spot on the "so bad it's good" shelf of my library.
When i see a movie i usually read it on The Richter Scale on all seens, actor's actress cast blah blah blah on all corners of the movie 🎥🍿 ,but i gotta say Ghost of mars was actually pretty good and I've enjoyed it pretty much and for me to give a movie a good review it's pretty rare ,that been said the movie is great good and i would love to see a part 2 this film got a lot of good things going on in it , someone needs to sit on the director's chair and make part 2 happen 😊😅😊😅.
A hodge podge of every John Carpenter movie made prior. Not in a fun way like Rise of Skywalker, but in more of a random way. In that movie, everything but the main story was consistant and well done. With this, the only consistancy is John Carpenter's terrific direction.
I have seen this movie, enjoyed watching it, at the time I thought it great, and I was disappointed it never got a sequel to it. Now I strongly feel that the story of (GHOSTS OF MARS) should be made into a show series.
Saw this in the cinema when it came out. Its just exactly what is says on the tin and was an absolute hoot. A classic ? No.... Great cheesy fun? Definitely. Always enjoyed it, and never been bored rewatching it.
Just like neon maniacs this movie will always be one of my favorite guilty pleasures. It’s amazing to see all of these actors so early in their careers.
For some reason I've always been fond of this movie, takes me back to the early 2000s being a kid and this is just one of those random movies I didn't forget. It's got that good kind of 90s 2000s cheese.
I seen it in the theater back in the day. I enjoyed it. As soon as I was old enough to drive. If there was a Carpenter movie in the theater. I would go see it.
This movie is so good, especially like when they get away in the train and the movie could've ended, but then decided to turn around and go back to the cursed town lolz 😂
I love Ghosts of Mars. My favourite guilty pleasure style of film is that Starship Troopers, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Anaconda, Escape from LA etc B Grade which GoM fits perfectly.
If you were ever going to remake a carpenter film, it should be this one. Lots of potential to improve things. Don't get me wrong, I have love for this flick.
I actually remember seeing this first time not having clue what was about and I enjoyed particularly up to when the bad guys or ghosts were introduced. The lead up I thought was good and had me thinking.
While it fails as a film, GoM at least serves as a jokey compendium of Carpenter´s filmography: the siege scenario of Assault on Precinct 13; the possession motif (and visual effects) of Prince of Darkness mixed up with the alien transformation theme of The Thing; the mass brawls of Big Trouble in Little China; the bone-dry, borderline self-parody of an action hero of the Snake Plissken pictures; the legitimately poor, unresolved endings of too many films in his back catalogue....
Man this was a great movie when it came out. To a bunch of high school fresh men it was really fun. It was like a video game. Ice cube, Natasha from species and Pam Grier i was all about it. The name desolation Williams was good too. A remake would do great.
@@Kthomasritchie It seemed like a lackluster sci-fi version of Precinct 13, but with a great cast! It was his first film that was a watch if there is nothing else on!
@@derekderewal3876 Even the very last shot of the two survivors walking away was practically the same. Carpenter always had an obsession with Howard Hawkes’s Rio Bravo.
Aww, what a nice surprise for my Friday evening. lol For all it's cheese, and there is A LOT of it, I somehow managed to get hooked on this movie. On to the video.
As usual Carpenter was far ahead of his time. We're at the point now where every movie that comes out has to be an Oscar worthy cinematic masterpiece and considered fine art. So an old school dumb fun action flick never to be taken seriously is a breath of fresh air.
Don't remember why I bought this movie, I think just because it came in a cool little red tin that looked like Mars... whatever reason I ended up owning it. And it was hilarious from the get-go, from how bad it was. But I never cracked up so hard as when they got to how the people who were possessed by the Ghost of Mars talked. There is no special effects or nothing it was just like straight-up child pretending to be a monster "RAR RAR RARRRRR!" omg.... I rolled so hard my ribs hurt. Crying laughing. ❤❤😭😭❤❤
An interesting Easter Egg is the weapons Ice Cube is using at 6:33 are very rare Franchi Sub machine guns finished in chrome. The very same used by Rock Hudson and others in the Martian Chronicles" TV Mini-Series ( Another popular Mars human encountering ghosts story). As these weapons and props are so rare and obscure, it isn't a coincidence.
I knew the movie wasn't trying to take itself seriously & i love it for that reason & many more.idk why people hate on movies all the time? It's like they expect something from the movie but nobody including themselves can even figure out. Whenever something is critically panned I want to go see it even more usually lolz
Every time I watch Ghosts of Mars I feel like I miss a scene explaining why any of it makes sense. Most confusing, who put Ice Cube in jail again? And why?
I enjoyed this movie. Yeah it isn't the best, groundbreaking piece of cinema. But it was never meant to be. I'm a sucker for sci-fi movies of any kind, and would rather watch this then 90% of todays Hollywood blockbuster films.
When i was 15 back in 2001 and i saw this movie, easily one of my futuristic horror movies💯 they kinda teased a sequel at the end but it was never made
Tarantino is wrong about directors losing their touch as they get old. Kurosawa was still making pure gold in his eighties. And Clint Eastwood directed his best film (American Sniper) in his golden years. John Carpenter likewise kept making good movies into the 90s they're just underappreciated. It's a crying shame he retired from directing
Ghosts of Mars ranks right up there with Big Trouble In Little China for me. The only thing I would ask for is a fan edit that alters/removes Big Daddy Mars's goofy gibberish yelling. Maybe I can edit a version myself. Other than that one minor complaint, it's an awesome movie and a total classic imo.
Some more...Carpenter wanted Statham for the lead,but the money people wanted Ice Cube because he was in a few low budget hit films.Natasha Henstridge did have a breakdown and the actor that was another officer and was killed by getting his arm and head cut off was her husband and comforted her.Carpenter was also way pissed about how films were made.
I liked this film and seen it too many times. The movie score was great and action scenes. I did feel Jason Statham should of been Desolation Williams. Either way it was still one of my favorite sci-fi films.
I actually love this movie. It's in my list of the top 5 of John Carpenter's films. Just a fun action movie with a great cast.
Thank you facts!!! Plus helloooo ice cube nwa kicks ass!!!!
I didn’t watch it for years because I heard it was garbage but dammit it’s so much fun.
Yea I’m a fan of this one, I enjoyed and have watched it a few times lol
I agree with you, the cast worked well
i just watched this at work yesterday lol, its such a fun movie!
Saw this in the theaters and loved it. Still do. An outpost on Mars? An ancient, alien force that possesses people and drives them to commit atrocities. A badass team of protagonists just trying to live through the next few hours. This is the best adaptation of Doom, to hit the big screen, despite having nothing to do with that property.
Doom is actually better than this turd.
I don’t know why but I loved it then. Used to watch it on HBO all the time. Need to watch it again (I will pick it up on VUDU).
Gonna be honest, I always loved this movie. Saw it as a kid and it definitely has a spot on my Good-Bad list of films
I remember taking my mom to see this in my college days. She never missed a John Carpenter movie, even an average one.
I also saw this with my mother in the theater hehe
I imagine your mom is pretty cool, then!
LOL stories of cool moms. Nice. I had a tough time growing abdominal muscles.
Frickin awesome
Cute lol
I absolutely love this movie. It reminds me of Heavy Metal but in live action form.
i dont get any heavy metal vibes from this movie at all. and yes i know youre talking about the cartoon not the music genre.
This movie is great! Forgotten gem even! Showed this to a group of my friends a while back during weekend movie night, none of them had ever heard of it. When it was over, they loved it. We all pretty much agreed that it is a better possession movie than most of the crap released in the past decade. Now it's in the cycle for our annual Halloween movie list LOL
This is an absolutely terrible movie. But I am absolutely onside with someone loving it. Right on. I've liked tons of movies most hated.
Movie is terrible
This movie go hard 🔥
@@guyjperson Same LOL There are a ton of movies I could list that are absolute dog shit but I find myself watching them every couple of years 😅

I hunted down the soundtrack, and still rock out to it to this day. One of the tracks is called "Pam Grier's Head." Fantastic.
In theater?!
I'm jealous!
Anthrax played that tune!!
I seriously question your taste.
@@arthurrimbaud7287 You wouldn't be the first.

She a beauty. I think being blonde stop her career somewhat

no
@@michaelwilhelm157 no??you didn't find her attractive or what??
Command & Conquer. 👌
Don't care what so-called critics said I enjoyed this movie and it is one of my favorite guilty pleasures
PS I would like to see a updated movie...that would be cool 😁
I saw this back to back with Jeepers creepers. I loved it. It's basically assault on precinct 13 in space.
Love this movie!
A Dead Space from Carpenter is a must!
Like you I have always avoided this film because I was afraid of hating it. Now not caring about critics and not liking anything recent to come out, plus having your some what approval, I will check it out.

I think Falling Down is a modern Western if redressed visually and put into the right context.
I loved this movie and still do
This movie is definitely an interesting one although I've always been a Ice Cube fan. So this movie will have a soft spot for me.
Writer of the episode here…I’m glad to see so many come to defense of this movie. Like it was mentioned in the video,I didn’t see it until last month. I had an absolute blast with it. Was it a good movie? Nah. But did it keep me entertained? Damn right. I’m a man of cheese, and Carpenter sliced up a giant piece of it.
It's ironic that it was made to be so cheesy, as if done seriously, this plot-line has enormous potential. I would love a remake.@@christianleger2100

Good question.
I've never seen so many dissolves in a movie before! Like, literally every shot!
there should be a gofundme to reedit this into a proper carpenter movie, not some genx hacker on extasy crap or what ever was the studio cooks in the kitchen plan to hipsterize carpenter.
This movie is an underrated gem!
It is the perfect Doom movie and third Snake Plizkin movie that we never got.
I remember being really excited for this movie when it came out. I was in High School. Watching I saw it as Assault on Precinct 13 in space.
Some Carpenter fans said this was originally supposed to be Escape From Earth , the third of a Snake Plisken series . It was a tough movie for John Carpenter make because his mother died during the making and maybe some studio interference .
“their plan is interrupted by the Woodstock ‘99 crowd” 😂😂😂
I’m here all day, folks.
this and Vampires will always have a special place in my heart watched them both over and over on vhs!
It's not John Carpenter's best one but is still Entertaining to watch if you ask me 😉
I agree! I’m glad to have finally seen it. Although I probably don’t think I would have enjoyed it much if I saw it when it first came out.
Yeah same, I remember watching it on a TV channel years ago and enjoyed it.
Carpenter's worst movies are probably better than most movies made today.
@@Kthomasritchie That's True 💯👍

Thank You for the Video 😀
Happy to see this shown in a positive light.
John Carpenter is the best director. Easily.
For years, I have felt people weree too harsh when it comes to this film. It's fun, and that is the whole point.
I love this movie! It was why we went to the movies. Ebert and Roeper gave it thumbs up. I agree!
I love this movie. I watched it a bunch of times as a kid
Ghosts of Mars was a pure science fiction experience.
I can't help but love this movie. It's just too much damn fun. It's a Paul Veerhoven style romp, completely tongue in cheek, and flying over general audiences heads.
Also... why is Norm Mcdonald narrarating?
I genuinely love this movie!
I actually liked the movie. I knew it was cheese and camp at the time, but in all the best ways. This one definitely has a spot on the "so bad it's good" shelf of my library.

OMG. Until you flashed that clip at the beginning, I totally forgot Burying the Ex was Joe Dante's last directing effort.

Surprised you didn’t mention the similarities to Assault on Precinct 13, even having the Desolation Williams instead of Napoleon Wilson.
Yeah, for me, it felt more like Assault on Precinct 13 than Escape from NY/LA.
@@Kthomasritchie It seemed like a lackluster sci-fi version of Precinct 13, but with a great cast! It was his first film that was a watch if there is nothing else on!
Oh yeah, its 75 percent a Precinct 13 remake. Same characters, similar story, same antihero.

I use this as movie background noise or to fall asleep to and also watch it as a guilty pleasure
As usual Carpenter was far ahead of his time. We're at the point now where every movie that comes out has to be an Oscar worthy cinematic masterpiece and considered fine art. So an old school dumb fun action flick never to be taken seriously is a breath of fresh air.
You never once said I like this movie I grew up watching it
I love this movie. I always wanted the teased sequel to happen st the end.
Still have this on vhs too
Listen to you pretending you watched it after saying you chose not to watch it when it came out
I watched it for the first time last month. I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected.
It’s a fun film. I watched it ALL the time when it was HBO as a kid.
The 90's were SNL's second golden age. This skit more relevant today than ever
I enjoyed It so much when It came out, i was just a carpenter addict just waiting for some good stuff at the Time! ❤️
Don't remember why I bought this movie, I think just because it came in a cool little red tin that looked like Mars... whatever reason I ended up owning it. And it was hilarious from the get-go, from how bad it was. But I never cracked up so hard as when they got to how the people who were possessed by the Ghost of Mars talked.

An interesting Easter Egg is the weapons Ice Cube is using at 6:33 are very rare Franchi Sub machine guns finished in chrome. The very same used by Rock Hudson and others in the Martian Chronicles" TV Mini-Series ( Another popular Mars human encountering ghosts story). As these weapons and props are so rare and obscure, it isn't a coincidence.
Guilty pleasure. Love this gem
Love this movie. Ice Cube is dressed like Snake Pliskin to me. Always was on the lookout for a sequel.
"Even though it's not Friday, she's got a job and !%$# to do." I'm dying! That was so funny!
I loved this movie back then and still love it now.

Yea but like 4 out of 5 of his last movies(Clint) sucked though so I can see his point.
Holy shlt. Was that u singin in the end Mr Narrator? Sounded pretty good mate.
Ghosts of Mars ranks right up there with Big Trouble In Little China for me. The only thing I would ask for is a fan edit that alters/removes Big Daddy Mars's goofy gibberish yelling. Maybe I can edit a version myself. Other than that one minor complaint, it's an awesome movie and a total classic imo.
I like this movie. So many strange elements, happy memories drinking cheap wine in the summer and watching this at night on hbo.
John Carpenter adapting Dead Space? Yes please.
This movie felt like a fever dream
Same.
I love this movie. I think Carpenter watched the last segment of Heavy Metal and this was his take on it.
Him doing a Dead Space movie is very intriguing
Some more...Carpenter wanted Statham for the lead,but the money people wanted Ice Cube because he was in a few low budget hit films.Natasha Henstridge did have a breakdown and the actor that was another officer and was killed by getting his arm and head cut off was her husband and comforted her.Carpenter was also way pissed about how films were made.

This was pretty cool at the time. IF Ghost of Mars, Doom and Prometheus was on an app’s movie selection screen, I’d pick Ghost of Mars.
Nah Prometheus is still the best but I get it
I've not seen this in years. I need to revisit.
