THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD - Presented In 35MM

*One Show Only - Saturday February 15th at 11:30am - Presented In 35MM*
Featuring an introduction and post-screening discussion with Alec Nevala-Lee, author of "Astounding: John W. Campbell, Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein, L. Ron Hubbard, and the Golden Age of Science Fiction". Nevala-Lee discovered and enabled the publication of "Frozen Hell", the original uncut version of Campbell's novella "Who Goes There?", which has been filmed three times as THE THING.
When scientist Dr. Carrington (Robert Cornthwaite) reports a UFO near his North Pole research base, the Air Force sends in a team under Capt. Patrick Hendry (Kenneth Tobey) to investigate. What they find is a wrecked spaceship and a humanoid creature (James Arness) frozen in the ice. They bring their discovery back to the base, but Carrington and Hendry disagree over what to do with it. Meanwhile, the creature is accidentally thawed and begins wreaking havoc.
