The Thing (2011 and 1982)

On this episode of Sole Survivors we review John Carpenter's iconic 1982 movie "The Thing". We also talk about the 2011 prequel "The Thing".



"The film took three months to shoot on six artificially frozen sound stages in Los Angeles, with many of the crew and actors working in cold conditions.[13] The final weeks of shooting took place in northern British Columbia, near the border with Alaska, where snow was guaranteed to fall." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thing_(1982_film)#Production
