Episode 68 - The Thing (Or Miss Thing)

Jonathan Butler hosts an episode looking at his favourite horror movie 'The Thing'. John Carpenter's classic 80s sci fi horror stars Kurt Russell and an all-male cast as they take on a shape-shifting monstrosity in the wilds of Antarctica. But can the rest of the Screaming Queenz find anything queer about this film? Well, seeing as 5 gallons of KY jelly were used in the making of the film, not to mention a tenuous link to Madonna and an ending that could signal a Brokeback Mountain style romance, consider our straws well and truly clutched at. Aside from that this incredible bleak horror deserves all the love and we give it some, with Ennio Morricone's amazing soundtrack throbbing just beneath the surface.

Screaming Queenz have now joined up, Thing-style, with Brit Pod Scene, a fabulous online network of independent British podcasts. Be sure to check them out via Twitter here:
