He was like a more consistently brilliant version of John Carpenter.

The difference between the two is an was that carpenter wasnt only a horror film maker he was a director first who could make all kinds of films.Were as craven was only great at horror films.Its hard to compare them because you cant compare films like assault an people under the stairs.Its like comparing an action flick with a slasher it dosent work.You can only compare there horror they did an in terms of those.Carpenter has the best two with the thing an halloween.But craven has the better horror out put over all people under the stairs scream nightmare on elm street serpent an the rainbow red eye scream 4 are all better horror an thrillers then fog christine vampires village of the damned prince of darkness they live an especially the ward an ghosts of mars.Scream by itself is better then every one of those.As is people under the stairs.An serpent an the rainbow.Even red eye is a better thriller then those .In terms of film career as a whole carpenter wins because of big trouble in little china star man escape from new york.An halloween thing but in terms of just comparing there horror films craven wins with a better horror out put as a whole .
