About this event
Main floor Rasmuson Library. Looking for a movie that’s out of this world? Join us for The Thing from Another World (1951), the sci-fi horror classic that helped define the alien invasion genre! When a mysterious flying saucer crashes in the Arctic, a team of scientists and military personnel uncover something frozen beneath the ice…and it’s definitely not friendly. As the temperature rises, so do the stakes, leading to suspense, sharp dialogue, and one unforgettable monster. Packed with 1950s Cold War paranoia, black-and-white atmosphere, and plenty of campy fun, this is the perfect film for anyone who loves classic science fiction. Just remember…keep watching the skies! Level 2, Rasmuson Library Free Popcorn! Free Parking! Bring your favorite snacks--or even dinner!
