So good to hear this brilliant director give partial credit for the nightmarish scenes in The Thing to Dean Cundy. Just a amazingly talented cinematographer.
Thank you so much Rob Bottin and Mr. Carpenter for The Thing, the best movie I've ever seen. Nothing compares to the acting, sense of paranoia and creature effects in this movie.
@@MickGarrisInterviewslol , I knew I was because ive watched multiple interviews with Carpenter pronouncing his name correctly. Its It's frustrating cause he's my favorite effects artist and doesn't get enough recognition
Went to see the Thing in the theatre with friends,,,totally oblivious to the film. 20 yrs old and had no idea what to expect. Never saw the original. Not that it would have mattered. Fnking great horror film and ofc cutting edge for the time. Even have my "i saw the thing" sticker.
Cool. I love John Carpenter and The Thing. I'll hafta pick up that new Blu-ray when I can. The DVD commentary with Kurt Russell and Carpenter was great so I hope this new release has a new one.
@@vbassone No, it doesn't. It just has the commentary that we all know and love. There may have been other releases since when I bought this one but this 2017 release didn't have a new commentary.
Halloween, The Thing, Escape from New York, masterful films by John Carpenter. Hes getting on now but i just wish he would come back and do one more followup, like one last Escape from... movie or something.
This is a clip from the interview we did that appears on Scream Factory's amazing new Blu-ray of THE THING. And your timing is great: POST MORTEM is becoming a new podcast from Podcast One next month!
