Description

"Mac wants the flamethrower!" Very rarely does a quote sum up a movie quite like that line and The Thing, John Carpenter's 1982 science-fiction/horror classic. You've got bearded Kurt Russell with beautiful flowing hair; you've got Keith David, Wilford Brimley, and a terrific cast of character actors; and you've got a gore-filled, paranoia-centric monster story that still holds up today. For our latest entry in Horror Month, we travel to Antarctica with MacReady and prepare for battle with a shape-shifting alien.
