Hey Jay, will you ever talk about Friedkin’s The Exorcist on re:view??

Anonymous

Hey, please re:view the first Robocop or Total Recall some day. Cheers

No, Nolan doesn't have subtle scores, but Interstellar and Dunkirk have awesome scores...different emotions and feelings they are trying to convey...or different scope. The scores for those always seem to have these grandiose size of scopes.

They probably said everything there is to say about Robocop in that Half in the Bag from a few years ago.

The eyelight thing is also really compelling - at the end, Childs is definitely a THING. There's only one tiny frame where he opens his eyes to reveal any sort of reflection, and his breath is extremely subtle during the entire exchange, whereas Kurt's eye light is very intense and the breath he emits, strongly lit. I think these are all clues to tell us Childs was infected and simply coming back to hibernate. <a href="https://www.slashfilm.com/the-thing-monster/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.slashfilm.com/the-thing-monster/</a>

Yay, I love Jay and Colin re:Views!

Are you gonna do ant mang 2?

Good video as always. I gotta say though, I'm pretty sure the examples shown of "stop-motion" is really just the footage run backwards.

36 years later and the effects still look amazing!

Very enjoyable episode. Most informative one yet.

Agreed! They seem to really nerd out about things on a more technical level.

I love THE THING -- this was a great episode! Well done. By the way, have any of you seen the recent AMC miniseries THE TERROR? It has similar themes (the arctic, isolation, a mysterious creature, hefty dose of nihilism) and I absolutely *loved* it. Very much a slow-burn horror, with plenty of historical drama too, but so well done.

what is the film at the 40 second mark?

One thing I really like about The Thing is how all the characters are very likable, you don't wanna see them die... unlike the vast majority of horrors movies.

Wow I’m old. I was about 2.5 when this came out. I watched the hell out of it on VHS or BETA (we were a beta adoption family). I loved this as much as jaws. It scared the shit out of me so I only watched jaws a lot. In retrospect if I switched those, maybe I could have swam in the ocean without crippling fear.

what are next?

this is one of those classics I've just never gotten around to seeing, even though its right up my alley in terms of taste - I got about 10min into this re:View episode and then shut it off and realized I need to go finally watch The Thing ASAP

I have been waiting since I discovered you guys for this video. Is there any chance for a commentary for it?

I was really hoping you guys make a re:view of The Thing for ages and I got genuinely excited when I saw this pop up in my notifications!

I flip flop on this often: The Thing &gt; Alien

I'm not much into horror movies, but I'll give The Thing a shot. When you guys talked about it, you made me very curious, less what is going on with the Thing, but with the people who fight it.

The dog scene from The Thing fucked me up so bad. Had had trouble sleeping for weeks. Like, it hit something deep inside me that really disturbed me.

I got totally grossed out watching The Thing, and haven't seen it since 1982. But thanks to these hack frauds, I bought the Blu-ray, and I'm giving it another chance.

I'm back to say I love it now, and appreciate the mood of paranoia it creates. Of course, this time I had about 20 FEWER beers than I did in 1982, which helps a lot. Thanks, hack-frauds. Now, how about some new content?
