Freeze Frame Film Club Presents – The Thing (1982)

Sunday 3rd November 2024
From 6.00pm, £8 - £22

Freeze Frame is delighted to present a special Halloween week screening of the spine chilling classic The Thing (1982). 

Dig out your parkas and snow goggles in preparation for a night of frozen terror as we join the crew of the remote Antarctic research station, US Outpost No. 31. 

In the second screen adaptation of John W Campbell Jr’s novella ‘Who goes there?’ fear, paranoia and mistrust grow amongst the twelve scientists wintering at the station as it is infiltrated by an unknown entity known only as the ‘thing’. In the frozen desert of the Antarctic, there is no one to help and nowhere to hide. 

A two course meal inspired by the film will be served before the screening. 

Join us for a celluloid inspired pre-show meal in the Drill Hall Cafe or just come for the film and freshly popped corn.

Tickets and Pricing

  • Film + delicious 2-course film-inspired meal: £22
  • Film + popcorn: £8

Doors open at 6pm for the meal, with the film starting at 7.30pm.
