Sometimes a film is worth a second look, especially if Mark Mawston wants to talk about it on the show, so that’s why for this episode the B-Movie Cast is revisiting a true Sci-fi/Horror classic: “John Carpenter’s The Thing” from 1982. Get ready for paranoia on the screen and a lot of confusion from Mary on the podcast as Nic and Mark try, and fail, to help Mary understand what happened in this complicated update adaptation of the John W. Campbell novella ‘Who Goes There?’. So, get your blood tests ready and put on some warm clothes because the B-Movie Cast is heading for Outpost 31 and a rendezvous with “The Thing”.

The B-Movie Cast is back! Mary and Nic are joined by Mark Mawston and this week we’re checking out a John Carpenter classic: “Big Trouble in Little China”!

So get ready to dive into long-haul trucking, Kung-Fu, Chinese mysticism, and more snappy dialogue than you can shake a six-demon bag at as the B-Movie Cast checks out “Big Trouble in Little China” as part of our unintentional series of Victor Wong movies!
