What our Critics say: The Thing’ is regarded as one of the greatest horror films of all time. Based on John W. Campbell Jr. novella Who Goes There?, it tells the terrifying tale of a group of researchers in Antarctica in 1982 who discover an alien looking body buried deep in the snow for over 100,000 years. Once unfrozen, the form-changing alien wreaks havoc, creates terror and becomes one of them.
The Critics Choice Cinema is a film programme curated by 2 local Film Experts, John Sellings and Graeme Kennedy. One of our Critics will be on hand to introduce each film and you are welcome to join us in the bar for a post screening chat about the film.
