THE THING question

IT! THE TERROR FROM BEYOND SPACE...
Published (2009-11-10 03:04:53)
I love the story about how that's Ray "Crash" Corrigan's manly chin poking out of the monster's mouth, all painted up to look like a monster tongue. From IMDB: When Ray Corrigan was fitted for the monster suit, the mask was initially too tight. Paul Blaisdell, the maker of the monster suit, had to remove and rebuild the monster's lower jaw so the mask would fit better. Unfortunately, Corrigan's chin...

The "IT" suit is seen in Invisible Invaders - sadly worn by a short guy. It looks pretty baggy. Guess that's why they made them INVISIBLE Invaders.

By no means am I an expert, but I've always understood that meteor danger in space--mini or otherwise--was always vastly overstated by sci-fi stories and movies. Most of the empty vastness of space is just that--empty.

From Hell it Came (1957)

Well, it seems WB Video has me up a tree. I thought there was free shipping, but I guess we're not Kimo Sabe enough. Gotta dig up some extra lettuce if you want to have it delivered to watch under your canopy. It will still be a welcome sapling to the growing collection. I think I'll serve deep fried tree rings at the screening....

Query on Beginning Of The End
Published (2009-11-13 19:49:07)
Bill Warren wrote: His movies usually have very good opening scenes, then nothing for a while , then a flurry of effects/monsters, and then they wrap up limply. (Emphasis added) I'm reminded of Steve Martin's original trailer for THE JERK. It was purportedly meant for theater owners only and consisted of Steve Martin speaking directly to the camera, telling the theater owners how good the picture would be for them especially since...

My favorite part is when Peter Graves says, completely deadpan: "But you can't just drop an atomic bomb on Chicago!"

Speaking of comic book adaptations, one of the Warren magazines (CREEPY or EERIE) did a "book length" adaptation of the first story in VOYAGE OF THE
SPACE BEAGLE ("Discord in Scarlet" or "Dark Destroyer" I forget which title came first). They patterned their ship and alien on the ship
and alien design from ALIEN but it was a good, solid adaptation.

I WAS A TEENAGE WEREWOLF has to be among any selection of 1950's essentials. And HORROR OF DRACULA. I'd also pick 20 MILLION MILES TO EARTH over EARTH
VS THE FLYING SAUCERS. Harryhausen's Ymir is more iconic than his flying saucers.

I saw Carpenter's movie first too. I like both but I will have to go with the 80's Thing.

Didn't someone else say that this movie was the inspiration for the long running cartoon franchise, " Scooby Doo?" Kids solving mysteries, the
"ghost" that turns out to be a guy in a costume, faking it for some reason or other... a gal in glasses...
Obviously, Hanna and Barbarra were fans...

I've only seen the trailer for this film. It looks interesting.
