John Carpenter turns an LA hell-elevator dream into 'Cathedral' graphic novel and album

clickondetroit.com

John Carpenter releases “Cathedral,” a graphic novel with original album, created with his son and godson after a dream about an LA church elevator to hell. The 78-year-old horror director composed spooky instrumental tracks with son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies, then enlisted wife Sandy King’s comic company for illustrations. He says he prefers cheaper creative projects because the movie business has become corporate. In an interview, Carpenter expressed skepticism about AI in music, calling it a human art form. The family also discussed dreams, including a nightmare about basketball legend Larry Bird. “Cathedral” is out Friday.
