Episode description

Chick Flicks is back in real time! In this episode, McKenzie and Bridget tackle another practical effects masterpiece, John Carpenter's The Thing (1982). Crawling spider-heads, exploding chests, and cosmic horror canines have helped make The Thing a cult classic, despite being a commercial and critical flop upon its release. Listen to hear us talk about The Thing, Xander Budnick, Michael Clayton, and more!
