From legendary genre director John Carpenter (Halloween) comes a sci-fi/horror masterpiece of suspense and creeping, cold dread. Adapted from the John W Cambell's novella Who Goes There? and a remake of 1951's The Thing From Another World, 1982's The Thing revolutionized the Sci-Fi/Horror genre with its Everyman vs The Unknown scenario, but also making it damn scary! Renowned for its groundbreaking craft, particularly the practical special effects that still look better than 99% of CGI today- The Thing also features a top-notch score by maestro Ennio Morriccone.

In remote Antarctica, a group of American research scientists are disturbed at their base camp by a helicopter shooting at a sled dog. When they take in the dog, it brutally attacks both human beings and canines in the camp and they discover that the beast can assume the shape of its victims. A resourceful helicopter pilot (Kurt Russell) and the camp doctor (Richard Dysart) lead the camp crew in a desperate, gory battle against the vicious creature before it picks them all off, one by one.

Released during a recession against optimistic films like E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, The Thing was a flop upon release but has since rightly garnered an otherworldly cult following.

It's SYNTHESIZERS & SCREAMS SATURDAY- Featuring THREE of the master John Carpenter's spooky classics in one day: They Live (1988), Halloween (1978), and The Thing (1982) w/ Live Music by Salem Wolves. Select the Triple Feature ticket to get discounted admission to all!
