He supposed he knew. Knew that the heart in his chest wasn’t his, though still as faulty as his was. Knew it would give out soon. Knew he’d be revealed. Knew he wasn’t himself. Knew he was dangerous.

Thing is though I get OP of that one post. I, too, am filled with a feral sort of desperate rage when people completely willfully ignore or miss the point of John Carpenter's The Thing, essentially making their own fanfiction of what the creature is and how the characters are.

Anyway, people who have no sense of what the movie is about should listen to John Carpenter's and Kurt Russell's audio commentary, in which they get into the intimacy of the guys at the outpost, the fact that the real horror of the alien is the paranoia and distrust it creates in people you once considered friends, directly tying it into the AIDS crisis actively happening during the time of filming, the fact that Kurt Russell has stated in interviews that people who argue "Well who was the thing at the end, Childs or MacReady?" are missing the whole damn point; NEITHER of them are, and these two lone survivors of this horrific event are both going to die alone because of their distrust of one another, instead of sharing their final moments as the friends and coworkers they were.

The whole point of the movie is yeah, sometimes there is no happy ending. Sometimes the monster wins, even if it dies. Even if you all did your best and acted as humans do in a life or death, terrifying situation, even if you tried really fucking hard... sometimes the monster wins. Sometimes you don't get to have a victory over a vanquished foe, because it vanquished you too.

Anyway I'll shut up now.

My character as the thing! Since I just finished watching it, it gave me a lot of inspiration to do this!

I just watched the 1982 The Thing, honestly it was great, while I wasn't scared that much. but the atmosphere, the set AND OH MY GOD THE PRATICAL EFFECTS. JUST BEAUTIFUL. CHEFS KISS. I looked it up, that movie was basicly completely practical effects and it pays off. Can see why its a classic

BUT. HOWEVER. this isn't a complaint as much as its a comment of how absurd it is that the(presumably) leader of this whole base is wearing a dam cowboy hat in the middle of ANTARTICA?? I dont dislike it but it kinda broke my immersion for a minute with how absurd it was.

Exhibit a:
