Award-winning horror writer Mike Arnzen joins Luke and James as Ink to Film's first special-guest-host to discuss John Carpenter's 1982 sci-fi horror classic, The Thing. In part one of their conversation they touch what the film might say about masculinity in the 80s, the incredible practical effects on display and what modern movie-makers might learn from them, the unreal dog acting, the underlying themes of the primitive vs technology and how that differs from the novella, and discuss the enduring legacy of the cult classic.
