Too many flashbacks and fade wipes, as simple editing tricks would've done the job. The entire movie is totally ridiculous, yet a guilty pleasure of mine. There's a lot of thrilling sequences that kept me interested and also some memorable deaths scenes which stuck with me for years. But still, I can't believe John Carpenter made this, until I saw 'The Ward'.

This is easily the worst movie set on Mars - or anywhere in a Milky Way!

So… I don't get all the hatred for Ghosts of Mars. Yes… It's a dumb movie, but just because the premise is rather dumb, doesn't mean it can't be a nice watch. Granted, there are some stilted acting and language here, but that drowns somewhat in the fact that I feel entertained every step of the way. Is Ghosts of Mars a masterpiece, like most of Carpenters filmography? No, certainly not, but it has its place, and I'll take it out now and then just to annoy the film snobs out there. Wish I could have seen the Escape from Mars version of the script, but I take what I can get. The Indicator release from Powerhouse Films in the UK is currently the best version I have seen. Well worth the cost!!!

I agree with Ebert & Roeper, this really isn’t a bad movie. Not Carpenter’s best but fun with a great cast. Carpenter also nailed it with the musical score as usual.

Frankly, this could have been set anywhere, but Mars in the late 22nd century is the venue for this slice of mediocre sci-fi horror. It all centres around a group of police officers who are detached to a remote mining colony to apprehend the wanted murderer "Desolation Williams" (the single-gear act More
