The Carpenter Factor Episode 5: Elvis (1979)

Elvis (1979) synopsis: “Biographical movie about the famous rock singer Elvis Presley.”

Starring: Kurt Russell, Shelley Winters, Season Hubley, and Charles Cyphers
Director: John Carpenter

This month on The Carpenter Factor, Zak and Corey dive into John Carpenter's second TV movie, Elvis (1979)! Like his previous small screen project, Someone's Watching Me! (1978), Elvis doesn't really feel like a Carpenter film but it is a very import part of his history because this was where he met his male muse, Kurt Russell! At 170 min, though, we can only recommend this movie to hardcore fans of Elvis Presley.
