Us horror fans are collectors, and that means we like to see everything related to our favorite films.
Our friends at AITH today caught wind of an insanely rare teaser trailer for John Carpenter’s 1982 The Thing that was hidden as an Easter Egg on the 2008 French DVD release. It’s allegedly something that was buried in the vaults until only recently released!
Also discovered was a look back at an alternate ending, deleted scenes and a special featurette.
The ending has always been something of controversy as it’s unclear if Kurt Russell’s MacReady or Keith David’s Childs, if either, are alien infected. Carpenter knows, and will never tell us, although it’s pretty clear that Russell is breathing… and Keith David is not.
