THE THING is a Horror Classic

[@ajalvarez3111]

The Thing doesn’t “take over” other bodies. It absorbs the other body as sustenance and then can shape itself to mimic the absorbed. The Thing definitely knows it is The Thing. It has always been The Thing.

[@Kuhmuhnistische_Partei]

And the breathing theory makes no sense. You can see the breath of multiple things during the movie (the Bennings-Thing has a lot of visible breath before it gets burned) and it wouldn't make any sense since it perfectly copies an organism which means it would also produce heat. Plus you can actually see Childs breath, it's just not that extreme, probably because he doesn't breathe as heavily as McReady and because of the lighting. Which makes sense, both are tired, but McReady just had a boss battle and Childs just wandered around in the snow, so obviously he doesn't breathe as heavily. And I think Carpenter was joking when he said it was 'obviously' the proof.

[@pistabacsi462]

It could have been halfway assimilated and thus producing the breath heat. That being said something like the thing would most likely produce heat as it copies the cells and therefore the metabolism which produces heat and energy

Well, another reason why The Thing (and Blade Runner) both failed financially is because at the time, everybody was experiencing a recession and they didn’t want “nihilistic” movies to remind them of that. E.T. was full of joy and they stuck with it. Great job covering one of the greats in the horror genre 😊😊

[@Fatalerror094]

Childs is The Thing at the end of the movie, and likely Mac realizes it, but not because Childs drank from the bottle. The Thing imitates its victims “perfectly”, meaning in that form The Thing would have taste buds that function just like ours. So, if there was gasoline, some other kind of petroleum-based liquid in the bottle instead of whiskey, The Thing would have tasted it. No, Mac knows Childs is The Thing because of the bogus story he gave him. The last time he saw Childs was from a distance when Childs stumbled out of the main building into the snowstorm. Childs told Mac moments ago it was because “thought I saw Blair” but this explanation is ridiculous because it was mere seconds after Childs left the camp that the power was cut. Even then, back in the toolshed with Garry and Nauls, MacReady knew it was because Blair had got back inside and blew the generator. Blair had to be under the main building in order to disable the generator, and this was while Childs was heading outside. Also, when Childs was convinced that MacReady was The Thing, and he was outside trying to get back in, Childs just wanted to keep him outside. He even insisted that Mac had to be The Thing because “Nothing human could have made it back here in this of weather without a guideline”. But, now he is trying to convince Mac that he thought it was a good idea to pursue Blair out into a snowstorm? Blair, who he couldn’t have seen because he had to be under the main building getting ready to kill the generator.

Ppl hated It cause it was so brutal wit the dog scenes and many more 😂

[@karanvirkooner1993]

A diopter split-focus lens was used in several shots of the scene with MacReady and Fuchs in the lab. MacReady, standing in the doorway in the background, and Fuchs, sitting at the desk in the foreground, are both in sharp focus. This would be impossible to do in-camera without a split-focus lens. Brian De Palma often uses this technique in his films.

[@secretospaleontologicos]

The dog transformation doll was'nt done by Botin but by Stan WInston, because Botin was on the hospital due to exhaustion, neumonia and ulcer

Bottin was literally almost worked himself to death.

[@michaeldavis2001]

The Thing absorbs and imitates a person perfectly. When it imitated Norris, it imitated his heart problem, Norris' heart attack was genuine. The attempt to duplicate Benning's implies that The Thing IS the person. It knows what it is. IT'S HIDING! The other dogs DO react to the Thing when it enters the cage. Blair builds a space ship, so MUST have been aware. Palmer only shows himself AFTER he has been revealed by the blood test, but he didn't know if the test would work, so he waited it out. The Thing WOULDN'T be able to tell gasoline from alcohol. Having human taste buds does not automatically give you the ability to identify everything. The Norwegian shooting at the 'dog' in the beginning wasn't a 'bad shot'. What effect would bullets have on a shapeshifter? BTW, he actually says, "Get away from it, you fools. It's not a dog. It's a thing!"

I never agreed with the gasoline in the bottle theory. The thing knows what you, has your same aversions, and thus would know “this is not Scotch”. It’s part of the mimicry. In my opinion, both froze to death.

I know it's an absolute crime that The Thing was hated when it was first released, however it was a blessing in disguise. If it hadn't flopped in 1982, Carpenter wouldn't have taken on Christine soon after. In my opinion, Christine is his second best film of his career, and that movie could've been way worse under a different director.

One of my all time favourite horror movies. It wasn't just gore, it was mystery, suspense and sci-fi. How could any sci-fi fan say this was bad?

The original "Universal" world logo was not used in the films opening credits because of confusion between the logo and then the saucer crashing into the Earth. One suggestion was to use the logo, zoom into space then see the saucer crash into the logo/earth. Instead to avoid confusion a simple white titles against black was used. Universal Studios executive Sid Sheinberg added a second tagline, "The ultimate in Alien Terror," simply to have the word "Alien" in there to capitalize on the Ridley Scott film. One of the few "Universal" films which does not open with the "Universal" logo. Others include "The Blues Brothers (1980)" and Steven Spielberg's "1941 (1979)."

Childs is breathing at the end of the movie and you can see his breathe on the blu ray copy of the film. Its just darker lighting on him so its hard to see whereas macready is facing the flames and his breath is more visible. Also i think it doesn't matter at the end, because the point of the movie is a commentary on paranoia. Also if they do a sequel i would like to see that both guys were actually human. Makes it more tragic.

I’m actually listening to this episode for the first time and I came to mention two things! In the prequel they actually built a prop for the set and were going to show what the thing looked like, which was close to the book’s description. In the book it was black with three red eyes and kinda like tentacles all over its body. I kind of always liked the idea that that might not have even been it’s true form given how it eats. 2. Was that in the book as they’re describing the thing they mention the idea it’s not evil. There’s this whole conversation that it might just exist this way and this is its way surviving and living, not necessarily making it bad or evil given that’s subjective and human-based construct! Sort of gives the movie a different feel too

[@raidersofthelostpodcast_]

Oh man next time I watch it I’m going to take the perspective that it’s not motivated by evil! Just a dominating life form 👏🏻

The lighting is confirmed, according to the videographer. However, it ONLY applies to the blood test scene, unlike some other people claim. They used the trick only to show Palmer wasn't human, from what I remember. This camera trick isn't used consistently in other shots.

[@shaolin.r]

eye lighting*.

[@Kuhmuhnistische_Partei]

And yes, I'm pretty sure there is a whole race of things (or maybe it has some hivemind stuff going on and all of its different forms are basically one being) since it was on many planets before and probably didn't always landed in some arctic waste. So it probably turned entire planets into things basically like the flood in Halo. Maybe once it infected a whole planet, it just builds a bunch of spaceships, but some of its mass into each of them and sends them away searching for more planets with biomass and then infecting them. So the thing in the movie is basically just a single seed of a giant disgusting dandelion. It would also give an interesting answer to the Fermi paradox: all civilizations that draw attention to themselves get consumed by the thing and that's the explanation why we don't see any signs of intelligent life in space (although to counter that, the thing itself would probably actively try to draw attention by pretending to be just a nice alien race that tries to find life in the universe as well and it would have super advanced technology to do that).

[@LoneWolf_Cub_Ogami_Itto]

That was not gasoline in the bottle, Mac was mid raising to drink it when Childs walked up behind him. The Thing no breath is stupid, it would be a perfect imiatation of a man and would breathe, WHY would they just not do instead of the bloodtest when hey lets walk aside visible breath test. Some folks are too desperate for definitive answer they don't think about it as they should. Palmer doesnt show light during bloodtest. And ok, Childs is thing, WHY make contact with The Thing slayer MacReady? Childs thing would sit down on other side of camp and just go to sleep. Or, OR: MacReady is now ONLY armed with a Colt Trooper Mk3 .357 Magnum revolver which is useless against Thing but super effective on people. Childs Thing is armed with a US Army M2 Nepalm Flamethrower assuming with fuel, why would The Thing not just walk up to him and fry the definitve Thing Slayer by the method Mac slayed Things with as retribution, then sit down and go to sleep for rescue team. See Carpenter has said many thing because he loves this reaction and he's toying with the audience and tans because thats the point and horror of The Thing. There is no definitive answer but the one you go with. So whats my theory? Whats my ending? The one Carpenter intended: we DO NOT KNOW. MacReady is just tired and gambled big and now he just wants to sleep. The point of this film is we do not know who is or isn't Thing, we don't even know the cells are cells as we know it according to Blair deleted scene with Doc Copper and Fuchs. So i love this film, but honestly a LOT of fan theories especially the Collative Learning channel posted, yeah if you asked certain question like the gas in J&B bottle Mac was mid raising to drink, the breath is simply lighting: Mac is in between flames from behind him and camera of other end. Only that flame light from across the scene is lighting which is nowhere near as bright. Plus, you don't think Mac kept a J&B bottle for this occasion? Doubt that, that man would what at least 1 5th to drink himself stupid as he freezes to death. Childs has a different coat do we actually know that staying outside in an Antarctic blizzard? Like it would be coated with snow and ice fog condensing ice to your clothes. So i don't buy that either. Thing Childs would either not risk making contact it had been very strategic up to this point, don't buy it. OR Childs Thing would slay the Thing Slayer with Mac's own weapon, a Nepalm Flamethrower. Childs IS a Thing, no he's not. Childs IS Human, no he's not. We do not know. The theories that Mac was a Thing through most of it... just go listen for yourselves. Truth is, not knowing, not having certainty to have closure is the really scary part and how a horror film is supposed to end: worst case scenario is the ending. Halloween, Loomis shoots him off a balcony with a S&W Model 15 .38 Special 6 shots, he looks to find Michael is gone and when he's not at all shocked with the look I knew this would happen confirming EVERYTHING Loomis said about Michael, that he's not a man and leaving that with all frames we saw him in stalking or attacking with the sound of his bellowing breathing, ending on his house where the 1st frame of the beginning is with his breathing getting louder and longer and more intense, He LIVES, IT LIVES, cut print roll it. The Thing has a similar ending in that the worst horror of this film is not knowing who is an imitation or human, but we know its here and hiding. Or... we think its here and hiding. The 1st 3 guys separated weren't Things in fact Mac ordered Norris Thing to shoot them up with morphine and watch them. Thats my arguments.
