me, fingers steepled under my chin, stoically perusing Mike Ploog's concept art and storyboards for 1982's classic John Carpenter horror film, "The Thing": yes.
Most of me wishes they'd had the money to film the planned death of Nauls, as it is he wanders off alone and isn't seen again for the remainder of the film. But the concept stuff for how that would go down is so mean-spirited! Damn!
today i am thinking about LAKE NOWHERE (2014), one of the most effective and least obnoxious throwbacks to the woods-bound slasher films of the 80's, with more than a healthy dash of the original EVIL DEAD in the mix. Absolutely underseen, and it's just over an hour long!

I really wish this scene had made it into The Thing 1982, as it for sure would have been an incredible creature showcase, but also because the frankly vicious implications of having Nauls crying for help say a lot about what exactly happens to someone when they're assimilated.
