The Thing (1982): John Carpenter's horror masterpiece
from Brett & Cliff's Flea Circus: A movie and TV podcast
To celebrate Brett's birthday we watch his favourite film, John Carpenter's The Thing, starring Kurt Russell. The 1982 horror classic was mauled by critics on release but is now regarded as one of the greatest movies of all time. There's plenty of daft chat around it, too, with a special quiz for the birthday boy rounding things off before we're played out by music from Man on Wire, with his new track Thursdays.
