You couldn’t make this movie today. That’s because the alien would just walk around in a bathrobe, tentacles and ribs sticking out everywhere. When challenged, it would just say:
“Oh, I guess that anybody who has different opinion about which biomass ought to consume which is a “MONSTER” now? So much for the tolerant left!”
The movie was a total bomb back in the day. There’s a review saying that it’s even worse than Blade Runner (which came out on the same day and was also intensely disliked). It almost destroyed Carpenter’s carrier. They hated it so much they nominated fucking Morricone for a Razzie (some unused tracks were later used by Tarantino in The Hateful Eight and won an Oscar…).

Carrier has arrived.
Also surprising to hear.
You couldn’t make this movie today. It was already made in 1982.
And Wilford Brimley is unavailable for some reason
I think his horse has diabeetus, or something.
As soon as you accused it, it would announce that it was running for president, delay judgement for four years, win, and then spread the infection worldwide.
No thanks!
That poor dog there on the other hand…
dw guys i trust it. That dog’s got a spare 8 dollars a month to spend on Twitter. It must be legit
Huskies:
Every time I say “space camp” my husky howls. Every time I say “MacCready” she starts sprouting tentacles and her stomach opens up into a huge mouth and she lets out this weird ass fucking sound. It’s pretty funny.
I bought so many plate heaters and bedding.
I brought it inside, but now it’s going crazy and jumping all over the furniture; even on my lap when I least expect it.
Here’s a picture of it in the act.
How does one hang a motorcycle on the wall?
Carefully.
Or use those shitty two sided tapes that claim they can hold 100kg or something and it turns out it’s if you use the entire roll to hold up the best scenario and only when the roll is new, because it stops being sticky after like a month after production.
Start by finding studs
If you turn your entire house on its side and hang the TV from the ceiling then you could lay your bike down in the living room and achieve the same optical effect.
Cat physics.
Carefully and with lots of redundancy.
I don’t know what the deal is with all the Thing stuff I’ve been seeing, but there’s a pretty fun (but REALLY broken and VERY laggy!) game called Nuclear Nightmare based on The Thing if you really want to simulate bringing in the Thing into your house
There’s an official The Thing game that has gotten a remaster that will be releasing soon. If it hasn’t already come out and I just missed it.
