Jordan and Alex lock themselves into a shack with just a chess computer, a bottle of J&B and a shape-shifting cosmic horror for company in this week's Too Much Information on John Carpenter's 1982 classic "The Thing!" They'll delve into the hows and whys the film got made with the writer of "The Bad News Bears," give the SFX wunderkind responsible for the film's monsters his roses, and ponder why Ennio Morricone's film scoring contracts specify his contributions down to the minute.  Listeners will also be privy the boozy secret ritual of the bar the cast and crew drank at in Hyder, Alaska and learn the one aspect of this film's pre-production that Carpenter vowed to never do again. Whatever's in there, it's weird and it's pissed off: It's Too Much Information!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
