Reviews

‘Jez Conolly’s footnotes are just as fascinating as his main text. Among the various subjects that he touches on is comparisons of The Thing with Scott and polar explorations in general, comparison of the film to The Shining, how subsequent fandom for the thing works and evolved, and various crazy things that served his inspirations for the film plus a lot of detail about the special effects and the team that created them.’
