Every self-respecting horror fan knows exactly what we’re talking about. There’s a scene at the beginning of what turned out to be the only decent film Kurt Russell ever appeared in, where The Thing, a rather vicious alien trapped in the Arctic, takes the form of a dog and peels its head like a piece of fruit. Yuk. But in the same turn, great.
The Thing is one of the finest, most frightening tension-filled gore flicks ever made, so news that Computer Artworks announced it was to make a cross-platform game of the movie in January created more than a buzz of excitement. PlayStation 2, Xbox, PC, Gamecube and Game Boy Advance versions are all to appear in the fullness of time, and today the Evolva developer released the first image of the game.
