  • Summary

  • It may not be cyberpunk, but it is one of the best science fiction/horror movies ever made, so we are making a brief departure from format to cover John Carpenter's The Thing from 1982. This movie does an incredible job of depicting paranoia, isolation, exhaustion, and terror... actually that's a pretty good description of the dystopia we find ourselves in today, so maybe this isn't such a departure from format. Anyway, the movie rules.

    The High Tech Low Life Podcast is a retrospective of cyberpunk fiction across all forms of media. Film, Television, Literature, Games, and Music are all on the table. In each episode we will revisit the property, it's influences, it's prescience, and enshrine it in the chrome and neon halls of Neo Valhalla.
