Watch a Halloween Short Spoof from Master of Horror John Carpenter!
True to the horror icon’s spirit, John Carpenter introduces his “first and last appearance on Funny or Die” with a very special Halloween spoof that combines Charlie Brown and All Hallow’s Eve. Entitled “Charlie Brown: Blockhead’s Revenge“, Carpenter calls the short “Terrifying, terrifyingly disappointing.”
“The grittiest, sexiest, scariest reboot of this Fall stars the cast of MTV’s “Teen Wolf” (Dylan O’Brien, Colton Haynes, Tyler Hoechlin & Holland Roden).”
It’s a pretty hilarious short with suggestive jokes and plenty of gags – too bad he didn’t direct them…
