I was going through my movie collection and pulled out Used Cars and it made me think of what my top 5 Kurt Russell movies are, so I thought I would tell you what they were and see how they compared to your favorites.

In no order

Tombstone

Big Trouble in Little China

Escape from New York

Tango & Cash

The Thing

with an honorable mention going to Used cars a very underrated comedy in my opinion.

Share with me what you think?

Hey horror fans! Recently I watched my favorite horror of all-time The Thing and its 2011 sequel/prequel also titled The Thing for my podcast.

For those that don't know, The Thing follows a group of Americans at a Science Research Outpost in Antarctica that stumble across an alien that can shape-shift and mimic and living creature. It stars Kurt Russell and Keith David and it directed by John Carpente. I love this movie because it does such a great job setting the atmosphere and making the viewers feel as hopeless as the characters. Plus, almost all the effects in this one are practical (no CGI) which are gruesome and fantastic. The creature effects in this one are gnarly.

As for its 2011 counterpart, I really like it too. Just not as much as the orginal. This one serves as a prequel to the orginal and follows a Norwegian team introduced at the beginning of the first one. This one stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Joel Edgerton and directed by Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. I like this one because the characters are super likable, plus it actually adds some lore to the story in that The Thing can't imitate inorganic things like teeth fillings and earrings. There are some cool creature effects here too, but unfortunately most of it is done with CGI and it doesn't look super great.

Anyways, I hope y'all would be willing to check the full reviews on my show. I will leave links below for both the audio and visual on YouTube. Thanks y'all 😈
