Mayday… mayday… can any one hear me?

We found something in the ice…

In 1982, Director John Carpenter unleashed a motion picture that shocked audiences and set new standards in terror and special effects.

Now, nearly 30 years later, Creature Features proudly presents an unprecedented reunion screening of The Thing at the Arclight Cinema in Hollywood on Thursday, October 13th at 7:30pm.

This special event showcases Carpenter’s vision in its vivid, widescreen glory for one last big-screen viewing before Universal Pictures premieres its chilling new prequel the following day.

Admission includes:

• Cast and crew members recount their personal insights and recollections with host Drew McWeeny of Hitfix.com. Confirmed guests include Producer David Foster, Matte Photographer Bill Taylor, renowned movie poster artist Drew Struzan, who will be displaying his original one-sheet artwork from The Thing, and many more to be announced.
• A spectacular display of original props, production artwork and memorabilia from both the 1951 version and the 1982 remake, gathered exclusively for this event.
• Commemorative program book created especially for this event with photos and commentary.

—and much more!
