Cullen McFaterHostYou guys gonna listen to Gary? We can beat one of those things!
I can't remember, but it's based on Who Goes There, which was written by John W. Campbell Jr.
I can't remember when the first film, was it from the 50s? Yeah, it was The Thing
1951, right? Apparently, my understanding, and I've not seen that film, but my understanding is that it deviated quite a bit from the novella.
I think Carpenter brought it back a little bit to be more in line with most of the novella.
as we always like to do, before we get into all that, tell me about your personal experience with the film, your first viewing that you remember, that you recall, and why you picked it.
