This week on the Arts Union Science podcast, we begin our Interdisciplinary Volume by bringing in a first author that is only interested in talking science and talking John Carpenter . . . and he's all out of science. Join the intrepid duo of Corresponding Author (Tyler D. R. Vance) and First Author (Phil Linden) as they explore the myriad of ways that aliens can try to take over the world, as seen through the lens of everyone's favourite independent horror director. While comparing (and contrasting) John Carpenter's "The Thing" and "They Live", they will also reminisce about their former movie club, weigh in on paranoia as a theme in horror movies, and sing the praises of Ennio Morricone.
