Matt Dillon: “Get out of Dodge Thing!”

Great movie, seriously.

Has anyone seen 2011’s The Thing? It’s the prequel to John Carpenter’s movie that takes place at the Norwegian station right before the events of the dog being shot at as it comes up to the McMurdo station where Kurt Russell’s character is.I encourage anyone to watch it. It’s the Norwegians that stumbles upon the saucer buried in the ice. You’ll get to see all that and how the Thing escapes from them.

Not really a cinematically impressive movie, so I won’t expect much from UHD.

The movies pale in comparison to the original story, ‘Who Goes There?’ By John Campbell. May be the best sci-fi story of all time.

I love the still shot of Mac (Kurt Russell) standing behind the empty block of ice holding the Ithaca 37 pump.

It's iconic.
