Badass Geek Stuff: Dutch Southern Stock Carpenter T-Shirt

If you know anything about me, then you know that I am a huge John Carpenter fan.   Everything the guy has done, I have to watch and I’m predestined to enjoy it.   Even schlock like ‘Ghosts of Mars’ and miserably directed pieces of work like ‘Pro-Life,’ I can’t help but enjoying on a principle level.

So you can imagine the tears of joy when I was directed to the new t-shirt from Dutch Southern.   It honors some of the best of Carpenter’s work, and creates the basis for what I think would be the perfect movie.

Here’s the description:

And they’re off.   A stock car race with some of the best from John Carpenter’s cannon.

1st Place: Dr. Loomis driving Burton’s rig, MacReady riding shotgun, Nada and Burton standing guard, and Lo Pan just seconds away from eating the Pork Chop Express.

2nd Place: the Duke in his Lincoln, Starman serving as co-pilot, and Snake surfing.

3rd Place: Christine, manned by an Alien and a Thing with Michael Myers making an escape from Smith’s Grove.

And if you look close enough in their dust you’ll see The Fog people, the Statue of Liberty, The Three Storms, and a jack-o-lantern.   Get your motor running and your very own Stock Carpenter today.

The shirt is designed by Ray Frenden and comes in sizes small to 3XL for guys, small to XL for girls.   They run $20 and come printed on American Apparel tees.   Check out the official site for ordering here, and thanks to our boys over at Cinematical for giving us the heads up.

Oh, and by the way, my birthday is only five, short months away.
