About this product

Product Information

The Thing is a science-fiction film based on the film produced in 1951 by Howard Hawks, which was based on the short story by John W. Campbell. The DVD offers an anamorphic widescreen picture re-mastered with closed captioning and subtitles, as well as an aspect ratio of 2.35:1 and a runtime of 109 minutes. The Thing provides a mixture of horror and action. This science-fiction film narrates the story of a group of scientists enduring the extreme winter of Antarctica in search for a buried alien spacecraft. Soon after the discovery of the spacecraft, the scientists find the frozen body of an alien that they bring back to camp, assuming that it’s the find of a life time. The alien wakes up and takes over the identities of the scientists one-by-one, and helicopter pilot MacCready (Kurt Russell) must differentiate real people from the alien. The DVD comes with special features, including the "John Carpenter's The Thing: Terror Takes Shape" 80-min documentary, stop motion animation cut from the film, and theatrical trailers. The Thing is popular due to its unique storyline and the breathtaking special effects of the creature in its different forms.

    Great movie and price

    I have watched this movie many times and was excited to be able to buy it on DVD. The DVD played great. The original was great too but I didn't care for the third one from the Norwegian side. The 1982 version is the best.

    The Master Of Horror Everyone It's John Carpenter

    This is one of the freakiest films I have watched. I think Carpenter is a master of Horror; and it this movie he doesn't only rely on horror, but science fiction. I loved this film, and got it for a great price. It is a must have for any horror/sci-fy fan. Once you watch it it will make your skin crawl.

    Drama, Suspense, Action Great Special Effects...A Great Ride.

    Love John Carpenter and The Thing is done perfectly by him. The acting is good, but then Kurt Russell...enough said there. The Thing has drama, action, suspense, great special effects. All make for great ride.

    Worth the price!

    This is still a great movie after all these years! Special effects not quite up to today's standards but still good. Interesting characters and relentless pacing. I particularly liked the commentary section on this disc with John Carpenter and Kurt Russell. Very interesting and funny too. Definitely worth the price.

    Definitely worth watching

    Fun scary movie! Entertaining story, scary monster, and decent special effects for the early early 80s! Good acting for the most part. Great to see a young Kurt Russell. The movie really keeps you on the edge of your seat the way it builds suspense and mystery. I would recommend
