Item Tag: JOHN NOLAN

WHO GOES THERE? is best known to science fiction and horror film fans as THE THING because it is the story that formed the basis of Howard Hawks‘ THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD (1951) and John Carpenter’s THE THING (1982). But to ardent readers of SF literature, it is the legendary SF-suspense classic penned by none other than John W. Campbell. With its vivid ensemble of characters, forbidding antarctic setting, and an unforgettably original creature at the center of all the action, the story well deserves its legendary status; it was voted „one of the finest science fiction novellas ever written“ by the Science Fiction Writers of America. This all-new edition features an Introduction by William F. Nolan (LOGAN’S RUN, BURNT OFFERINGS), and includes his never-before- published Screen Treatment of the story. Written for Universal Studios in 1978, Nolan’s scary, suspenseful, cinematic take on Who Goes There? truly makes this a must-have edition for fans of Campbell and THE THING motion pictures.
