This week on What We Saw On Stolen Cable, Uncle Patches and Sinister Cinema with special guest Brant Bumpers head deep into the frozen paranoia nightmare that is The Thing.

What starts as an isolated research station in Antarctica quickly turns into one of the greatest “trust nobody” horror films ever made. We’re talking gruesome practical effects, flamethrowers, blood tests, and the horrifying realization that the person sitting next to you may not be human anymore.

In this episode we discuss:

Why John Carpenter created one of the greatest horror movies of all timeThe legendary practical creature effects by Rob Bottin

Which character cracked under pressure firstTheories about that unforgettable endingAnd a sound track from an unlikely source.

So bundle up, keep the flamethrower close, and remember… nobody trusts anybody now.
