Drew Struzan created the original artwork for this theatrical release in less than twenty-four hours without ever seeing a single frame of the film. The composition features a parka-clad figure against an icy blue backdrop, where sharp rays of white light erupt from within the hood, obscuring the face in a chilling display of the thing movie wall art.

About sci-fi horror

Sci-fi horror combines the wonder of space with the dread of the unknown. Horror has the boldest poster tradition in cinema, from Expressionist shadows to modern minimalism. From Universal’s monsters to modern art-house horror, the genre has produced some of cinema’s most striking poster art.

Styling this sci-fi horror poster

Blue tones give this sci-fi horror poster a vibrant character that holds a room. In a dorm room, “John Carpenter’s The Thing” works as a 24×36″ statement piece above a console, or at 12×18″ to 16×20″ in a hallway or gallery wall. The blue palette of “John Carpenter’s The Thing” pairs naturally with white walls, navy or denim textiles and pale oak; finish it with a simple black or oak frame.
