In this episode we review John Carpenter's 1982 sci-fi horror classic "The Thing," including:

• Overall impressions
• Is it right for teens
• Was it "turn the lights on scary?"
• Favorite scenes
• How do we feel about it being all men?
• Which of the characters would you choose to be stuck with in Antarctica?
• What do we think happens at the end?
• What would we change?

As a bonus, we've watched the original 1951 "The Thing from Another World" and the 2011 movie "The Thing," which could be called a "premake" of Carpenter's film as it is both a prequel and remake of his movie. We'll comment and contrast these with the '82 film during our discussion but will also answer the following specific questions:

• What did we think about the 1951 version?
• What did we think about the cinematography of 2011 vs 1982?
• What about the special effects of 2011? How does 1982 hold up?
• Where does 2011 go right and where does it go wrong?
