Episode 247 – The Thing (1982)

Max, Mike; Movies

Here we are at the penultimate entry in our “You Haven’t Seen THAT?! Part 2” series and I’m really excited about this week’s entry. I had no idea there was a forty-year-old film about my favorite member of Marvel’s Fantastic Four, the ever-lovin’, blue-eyed . . . hah? Really? So, what’s this movie actually about? Oh. Oh geez. This is a SCARY movie? Mike, you didn’t say anything us watching a scary movie! Why are you smiling in that weird way? No, I don’t want to take a “nice nap” next to that big seed pod. I didn’t miss any field trip, what are you talking about?! Why do you have that big book “To Serve Max”? I mean, that sounds nice but . . . oh no . . . so many tentacles . . . um, so, dear listeners, join us for this John Carpenter classic and by the way, just as a small point of interest HELP! HELP! HEL . . . . [disturbing squelching noises]

Poll question: what is your favorite horror film and why?
