About this episode
Emma and Ally are heading to Antarctica and not trusting anyone, because this week on Spooky Chicks and Horror Flicks, the hosts recap and review The Thing (1982)! John Carpenter’s paranoid masterpiece that made isolation, teamwork, and pet ownership terrifying. Set in a remote research station, the film follows a group of scientists who discover an alien lifeform that can perfectly imitate its victims… which immediately turns every suspicion into a potential death sentence.
Expect a spoiler-filled breakdown of the film’s groundbreaking practical effects, slow-burning tension, and why The Thing went from box-office flop to one of the most beloved horror films of all time.
