Rotten Tomatoes Says John Carpenter Is Dead

While horror legend John Carpenter celebrates his 70th birthday on January 16th, popular movie review website Rotten Tomatoes accidentally suggested the filmmaker was dead on their Twitter feed. The now-deleted tweet said: "John Carpenter would have been 70 years old today!" Carpenter has been semi-retired from filmmaking, with his last theatrical release being "The Ward" in 2011, but he will return to the Halloween franchise as executive producer and composer on the new sequel.
