John Carpenter has made a number of the Giant Bomb staff's favorite movies--Big Trouble In Little China, The Thing, and They Live, just to name a few. Earlier this year, we discovered that Carpenter had taken to tweeting about video games semi-frequently, and Patrick got it in his head that he'd like to try and interview the man about his interest in the medium. The resulting interview also got us thinking that maybe, just maybe, Carpenter might like to submit his own list for this year's special guest Top 10s. Not necessarily expecting him to oblige, we reached out, and were quickly rewarded with a short, but intriguing list of the director's favorites. Below is the unedited list he was kind enough to send us.

Thanks, John.
