Horror 101 - Episode X: It's Weird and Pissed Off, whatever it is!!
This is the first of three shows focusing on John Carpenter's Apocalyptic Trilogy. First up, The Thing (1982). This is truly an amazing film that scores high on every level. Join as we discuss why its such a great movie and how it's initial release was plagued with bad press, horrible timing and a fan base that turned their back on it. How could this have happened? What was the original Thing From Another World (1951) like? How does the The Thing Prequel (2011) compare to Carpenter's vision? Join your hosts Cash, The World Famous Brian Stewart, Cult Sensation Nick MacPherson and special guest The Macabre Todd Gervais for another solid podcast dissecting a film that is firmly in most horror fan's top 10.
