John Carpenter Battles Writers Block in new Budweiser TV Ad!

Horror

Beer and horror films usually don’t mix when it comes to the slasher genre. Most of the time if you enjoy a cold one you end up on the wrong end of some kind of sharp, metal implement and you have a very very bad day.

However, in this new Brazillian television commercial, we see what appears to be a young John Carpenter sitting rather pensively in front of a typewriter, unable to make the words appear on the page. 

It’s not a secret that Carpenter had a hard time writing the script for HALLOWEEN II, after being kind of pushed into it. He’s openly admitted that having a six pack of Budweiser a night helped the writing process along. He said that it gave him a buzz, but didn’t get drunk from enjoying the frosty beverage. Check out the commercial below.
