Moustapha Akkad, Producer of Halloween Franchise, Killed In Jordanian Bombings
He was attending a wedding with his daughter.
It's possible his killing will further alienate moderate Muslims:
Akkad also produced and directed "The Message" (1976), a film about Islam's prophet, Mohammed, and "Lion of the Desert" (1981), which tells the story of a Muslim rebel who fought against the Italy's World War II conquest of Libya. Both starred Anthony Quinn.
Then again, black Muslims protested the showing of The Message in America, so maybe not.
Thanks to Salomeh.
