The Thing From Another World (1951)

The Thing From Another World (sometimes referred to as just The Thing) is a 1951 American science fiction horror film directed by Christian Nyby and produced by Edward Lasker for Howard Hawk’s Winchester Pictures and released by RKO. The film stars Margaret Sheridan, Kenneth Tobey, Robert Cornthwaite, and Douglas Spencer. James Arness plays The Thing, although he is difficult to recognize in costume and makeup due to both low lighting and other effects used to obscure his features. The film is based on the 1938 novella Who Goes There? written by John W. Campbell.
