Jordan Peele Brooks Has No Disrespect For John Carpenter

As a result of Get Out and Us, Jordan Peele has carved out a niche in horror films, and Nope is expected to experience a similar surge.

Jordan Peele himself strongly disagrees with fans ready to declare him the Greatest of All Time (G.O.A.T.).

I know this is a hot take, but when do we declare Peele the best horror director ever?

He wrote, "I can't think of another horror director who had 3 great films.".

That ignores John Carpenter's Halloween series, as well as the dozens of horror films he produced during the 1970s, 1980s, and beyond.

A gushing fan defended Carpenter's track record when numerous people pointed it out.

In my opinion, his other horror movies aren't that great. He does have some good ones, but they are more like cult classics.

"Sir, please put down the phone, I beg you," Peele responded. "I love your enthusiasm, but I won't tolerate any John Carpenter slander."
