The Thing (1982)

It’s the Slackers' one year anniversary! We did it! Going back to the roots of how their friendship started, they have a whole horror driven episode! They dive into a full spoiler discussion of “Backrooms” before getting into Robin’s pick, John Carpenter’s “The Thing”.  A rare remake so iconic it surpasses the original in terms of popularity. And somehow Sam has never seen it! Will he think it holds up, seeing it for the first time over 40 years after its release?
