I just watched The Thing last night with Kurt Russell and I haven't seen this movie in years and it was a blast to watch.

Anybody remember this movie?

I bought it on DVD and think they did a wonderful job restoring it but does anyone have it on Laserdisc that they would be willing to sell or trade?

    Great movie. Tons of extras. One of carpenter's best.

    Only one downfall to the disc ...............

    It's a badass game for ps2 and xbox as well......kinda scary, especially when you're inebriated.

    It's one of my classic flicks, a must have, and John Carpenter at his best. I too have it on DVD. Back in the eighties I borrowed the VHS copy from my friends Dad and never returned it. It's in the
    closet in a box. The special effects are first rate and still better than some of the B movies they make today. The creature goes through so many changes alot like ALIEN. I like this movie.
