John Carpenter’s Ghosts of Mars
Yes, there are perhaps a few too many flashbacks, plot holes, and irrational character choices… but this underrated 2001 sci-fi horror entry from genre legend John Carpenter still features a villain named “Big Daddy Mars,” and stars Ice Cube as a reluctant hero named “Desolation.” In other words, Ghosts of Mars knows exactly what kind of movie it is, and it’s all the more entertaining for it.
