Lord, Forgive Us Our Cinema
"The wages of cinema is death."
A movie podcast where theology meets banter.
In each episode, we discuss a film that we love (or love to hate). We explore it through a series of prompts, like "Who would you pray for in this movie?" or "Would this movie be better with Kirk Cameron?"
It's part movie review, part spiritual reflection. All good times.
Lord, Forgive Us Our Cinema
28. The Thing by John Carpenter

Okay, here's the thing.
Hahahahahaha.
No but seriously.
This movie is so bonkers. Gripping paranoia, brain-melting special effects, and whatever that giant hat was that Kurt Russell wore. Everything about this movie just rocks to high heaven.
But honestly, we're here to ask the questions that no other podcast is BRAVE enough to ask. Like, why isn't Keith David more appreciated? What happened to Wilford Brimley's mustache? Is "the thing" just a metaphor for the Pentecost? And how does this story relate to church history?
Tune in for all this and much, much more.
Thanks for listening.
