02/24/2021 02:58 pm EST

When it comes to horror movie posters, few are as iconic as Drew Struzan's work for 1982's The Thing, depicting a parka-clad human with an eerie glow emanating from their face, with Vice Press honoring that seminal artwork with an all-new 3D lenticular poster release. Multiple versions of the poster will be released, as fans will either be able to purchase a recreation of the original poster featuring the title treatment as well as the film's credits, in addition to an art print highlighting just the famous artwork. Additionally, each version of the poster will come in two different formats. All versions of the poster go on sale at Vice-Press.com on Thursday, February 25th at 12 p.m. ET.

Vice Press details the posters, "Well known to John Carpenter and cinema fans alike, Drew's iconic imagery for The Thing comes to life in these amazing lenticular prints. We've worked closely with the original source images to ensure that the art is replicated to the highest quality and we have posted a great video of the prototype up on our Twitter feed for you to see it in all its true glory!

"As a quick refresher from our previous lenticular release, we're currently offering two versions:

• A thinner (1mm), flexible PET lenticular print mounted on dense paper backing
