IN THIS EPISODE…

We’re staring into the abyss of 1981’s The Thing to see what will gaze back. Nathan D. Ludwig, director of GenreBlast Film Festival and the author behind Love Potion #666 (https://amzn.to/3kDBg3K) joins us to talk about his book, teases other projects and the inspiration behind his first novella. Since the inception of Abyss Gazing, we’ve teased our love for this movie and in this episode we discuss why it is the definitive practical effects movie, the mental health of isolation and much more!
