About this product

Product Information

The Thing is a science-fiction film based on the film produced in 1951 by Howard Hawks, which was based on the short story by John W. Campbell. The DVD offers an anamorphic widescreen picture re-mastered with closed captioning and subtitles, as well as an aspect ratio of 2.35:1 and a runtime of 109 minutes. The Thing provides a mixture of horror and action. This science-fiction film narrates the story of a group of scientists enduring the extreme winter of Antarctica in search for a buried alien spacecraft. Soon after the discovery of the spacecraft, the scientists find the frozen body of an alien that they bring back to camp, assuming that it’s the find of a life time. The alien wakes up and takes over the identities of the scientists one-by-one, and helicopter pilot MacCready (Kurt Russell) must differentiate real people from the alien. The DVD comes with special features, including the "John Carpenter's The Thing: Terror Takes Shape" 80-min documentary, stop motion animation cut from the film, and theatrical trailers. The Thing is popular due to its unique storyline and the breathtaking special effects of the creature in its different forms.

Excellent service. I accidentally had an American address on my account so she worked with me to do a return and repurchase the jeans to send them to a Canadian address. Appreciate your dedication to exceptional service. Thanks again.

    Great movie and price

    I have watched this movie many times and was excited to be able to buy it on DVD. The DVD played great. The original was great too but I didn't care for the third one from the Norwegian side. The 1982 version is the best.

  • THE THING COLLECTOR'S EDITION

    Previously released as a "Special Edition" in 1998, "The Thing" has been remastered for this edition.The anamorphic widescreen presentation is, I believe, the first time this has been transferred in the anamorphic format. The previous widescreen edition looked exceptionally good and comparisons between the two transfers reveal minimal differences except for the fact that the new edition is presented in anamorphic (i.e. with a higher resolution) picture. There are some minor digital blemishes that occasionally crop up as on the previous edition (which makes me suspect the previous master was digitally remastered vs. creating a new master). The 5.1 Surround Sound mix has tremendous presence and is exceptionally good with crystal clear dialogue. Ennio Morricone's ...

  • I love my Thing!

    In the early 1980's I came to realize that John Carpenter knew exactly what kind of movies I liked! I enjoyed "Assault on Precinct 13" and "Escape from New York" was just great! Then this VHS video of "The Thing" arrived at the video store...I thought that John outdid himself with this movie. Everything just works so well - from the opening scene in the Antartic landscape with the simple and eery (but oh-so-effective) bass-line from Ennio Morricone's score, the ultra suspenseful storyline to the "WOW!" special effects of an alien creature trying to come to terms with having multiple DNA... I had to get this DVD as my VHS copy of "The Thing" had been watched to death. This has been the most watched movie in my life and I even ...

  • Watch The Real Thing, Remakes A Joke

    After renting that terrible prequel/remake of The Thing (2011). I was so disappointed by the overuse of CGI and the fact that the movie sucked. So I decided to order the original John Carpenter classic. And watching it again the FX are way more terrifying than the remake. I owned it many times before, but lost my copies and Id never owned it on DVD before. This widescreen collectors edition is awesome. The picture and sound are excellent. And alot of cool special features as well. If Youve seen this movie, then I dont have to tell You how cool it is. But if Youve never seen this movie in Your life, Youve been missing out and I suggest You check it out. Its definately one of the movies that got me addicted to horror in the 80s.

  • John Carpenter's The Thing Scaryiest Horror Movie Ever!

    John Carpenter's The Thing starring Kurt Russel, Is the most scary movie that iv'e ever seen in my life!
