Ghosts of Mars

YOU DON’T STAND A GHOST OF A CHANCE.

ghostsofmarsIn 2176, Melanie Ballard (Natasha Henstridge) and fellow cops are assigned to transfer James Williams (Ice Cube) to a prison on Mars, but are faced with ghosts of the planetā€™s original inhabitants.Ā Director John Carpenter showed a new low by virtually remakingĀ Assault on Precinct 13Ā (1976) and setting it on Mars. The locations are hardly convincing and the script is utterly unimaginative. The ghosts look like KIZZĀ fans, but it seems like Carpenter lacked the motivation to make it more fun than that.

2001-U.S. 98 min. Color. Widescreen. Directed byĀ John Carpenter. Screenplay: Larry Sulkis, John Carpenter. Music: Anthrax, John Carpenter. Cast: Natasha Henstridge (Melanie Ballard), Ice Cube (James ā€Desolationā€ Williams), Pam Grier (Helena Braddock), Clea DuVall, Jason Statham, Liam Waite… Robert Carradine.

Trivia:Ā Courtney Love was reportedly first hired to play Henstridgeā€™s part, but had to bow out.
