The Thing (1982)

Send us Fan MailThere's SomeTHING about this movie. The Thing has always been a film I heard about being a tremendous alien film...however, your screen queen found out it took time for the flowers to be given to this film. In this episode I'm diving into the scares that care, the unseen heroes of this horror film...and a little mouse movie that has an odd connection to this film.EDIT 8/12/24 - Around the part where I mentioned how the opening title of The Secret of NIMH was inspired by The Thing, it was actually the original from Howard Hawks not the one that came out the same year. Happy FALL!!!Part 1: Halloween Series IntroPart 2: What is THE THING about?Part 3: The Thing vs. AlienPart 4: The hostile reception that hit John Carpenter's winning streak. Part 5: The Alien of The Thing (Also sorry I messed up Rob Bottin's name!
