John Carpenter’s The Thing (1982) is widely regarded as one of the best horror films ever made, despite being critically panned on its release. Set in Antarctica, the story of a shape-shifting alien hiding amongst a group of scientists is a gripping masterclass in paranoia, being matched with nightmarish practical effects. This iconic film’s unsettling and ominous score is given a symphonic treatment in this arrangement, underpinned by a persistent ‘heartbeat’ ostinato in the bass guitar.
