On this frosty episode of the Adult Beverage Film Podcast, we crack open our survival rations (a.k.a. adult beverages) and thaw out one of cinema's chilliest horror masterpieces — John Carpenter's The Thing. Joining us in the frozen tundra of our recording session is the legendary Bo Shurling — unit publicist, award-winner, celebrity wrangler, and the only man we know who can set up a Samuel L. Jackson press tour in the morning, bowl with Cameron Diaz in the afternoon, and still have enough energy to discuss alien shape-shifters over a beer.
We dig into the paranoia, the practical effects that still ooze, and the eternal question: who really had the whiskey in the last scene? Bo shares wild Hollywood set stories, the fine art of keeping A-listers happy in freezing weather, and why Antarctic researchers apparently never have enough flamethrowers.
So grab your parka, pour something strong (preferably not from an unmarked bottle next to a blood test), and join Kent, Laura, Patrick, Squeeker, and Bo as we dissect The Thing in the only way we know how — with laughter, libations, and just enough suspicion to side-eye your co-hosts.
