Release Date: 23rd October 2017THE ULTIMATE IN ALIEN TERROR
Over the years, star Kurt Russell and master of horror John
Carpenter have teamed up on a multitude of films (Big Trouble in
Little China and Escape from New York to name a few) – but of all
their collaborations, 1982’s horror/sci-fi amalgam The Thing surely
tops the list.
A research team based out in the snowy wilds of Antarctica find
themselves besieged by a terrifying, shape-shifting creature which
has found its way into their base. When it becomes clear that the
creature can take the form of any organism it so chooses, the
tension within the team reaches breaking point – any one of them
could be… The Thing.
Critically panned at the time of its release, John Carpenter’s The
Thing has rightly gone on to become one of the most celebrated
sci-fi horror efforts ever made – now newly restored by Arrow Video
in a stunning 4K transfer supervised by Carpenter and director of
photography Dean Cundey.
