Discount Opinions on Cult Films
"The idea of Antarctica defending itself is almost reflected in the creature itself. Each set piece with the creature is designed to show the Thing as this impossible, living organism desperately trying to survive. Rob Bottin and his team clearly had a ball designing the monster's various forms."
"Playing out like a hybrid of Prince of Darkness and Assault on Precinct 13, The Void features a single location and large pool of expendable characters taken out one by one. Feckless idiots getting picked off by nasties is, in a nutshell, The Void's plot. But as it's ultimately more of a pure eighties horror beast than the marketing initially suggested, there's a lot of metaphysical elements thrown in."
