John Carpenter Appreciation Month -THE THING

 "There is still cellular activity in these burned remains. They're not dead yet!" In this week's episode, we explore the 1982 science-fiction horror film THE THING.  We bring back writer/director/filmmaker Daniel Goad as we follow a research team in Antarctica that is hunted by a shape-shifting alien that assumes the appearance of it's victims. Macready (Kurt Russell) is set on the arduous task of determining who from his crew has been assimilated by The Thing and who remains human.  The team members' (Wilford Brimley, T.K. Carter, David Clennon, and Keith David to name some) paranoia threatens to tear them apart before The Thing can.   Join Cameron and Daniel talk about the theatrical version AND the rarely seen television version of the film.  Listen in to hear some of the differences and find out which version was liked better!   Haven't heard one of our episodes yet?  Let Clark explain what it's like:   "I dunno what the hell's in there, but it's weird and pissed off, whatever it is".   Check it out!
