"Horror movies don't get much better than this." – Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
Horror master John Carpenter (Halloween, Escape From New York) delivers "a masterful exercise in claustrophobic suspense… [with] elaborate special effects [that] set a high standard for films that followed" (TV Guide). Kurt Russell's iconic and tense performance drives this chilling version of the classic The Thing.
In the winter of 1982, a twelve-man research team at a remote Antarctic research station discovers an alien buried in the snow for over 100,000 years. Soon unfrozen, the form-changing alien wreaks havoc, creates terror… and becomes one of them.

“A great package. Shout/Scream have seriously outdone themselves. The transfer is gorgeous, colours pop and blacks look wonderful. Great job!”

“Picked this up at BB and found the PQ to be nothing short of sensational! Even more detailed then any previous release And blacks were strong and solid. No unnecessary gimmicks like HDR is needed...this is reference-qualty to my eyes. Well-done, Shout...and thanks!”

“Highly recommended title. Tons of special features, old and new, with some created specifically for this release. The main theme throbs and the overall sound quality is excellent. Get it!”

“When I was a child I, somehow, was allowed to watch a heavily edited TV version of The Thing which has been gloriously added to this collection for me to relive the how and why my parents let me watch this film when I was around 6. Either way, it deeply affected me, cultivated my love for monsters, and is probably patient zero for I've dedicated a large portion of my life to the pursuit of this genre.”

“The Thing is possibly the best horror movie ever made. And this collectors edition is fantastic. Great picture quality and loaded with features.”
