that dog actor deserved all the awards
The dog’s name was Jed. He also starred in The Journey Of Natty Gann. He also starred as White fang in White Fang 1&2,
The one dog, besides Cujo, we’re all like, “no get him!”
Apparently the dog was part wolf and he freaked out some of the cast on set with how un-dog like his behaviour was.
After the dog's performance in this movie, it should've gotten the "big bucks" alongside Kurt Russell & the rest of the human cast.
*Pictures an Alaskan Malamute in a suit and tie accepting an award for best actor*
Also, I died when Benji said, "I don't know which end is the autopsy and which end is the aubottomsy." lol!
😂
so i only recently learned this bit of trivia: the ship the thing crashed in was not it's own. it was ANOTHER alien species that it had infected and THEY crashed into earth so it wouldnt get to their home. and they werent transporting it, it attacked/hitched a ride with them
Wow I didn't know this. Nice
This means Benji's theory was right!
@@thalia9789 half right! He thought it was being intentionally transported for science but honestly, I've never heard anyone else get as close as him! Lol
S@#$! I didn't know that.
Yes, it had imitated millions of life forms across thousands of worlds.
You could say Antarctica Winter solves… cold cases
This is so bad, as I love it! 🤣
😂 Spat my tea out scrolling past this comment 😂
The dog in this movie is one of the best dog actors ever I listened to commentary from john carpenter and he said he the most amazing dog hes met
😭😭😭 what an amazing puppers!!
My sugestion for a movie is Ready or Not (2019) which is actually a horror comedy slasher type story. Very funny, very fast paced and gory, a good find in recent horror.
The same feels as cabin in the woods (Hemsworth is in it)
7:10 "i want a big dog" "i want a big hat" 😂😂 love u guys!!! have a great new year!!
Not Rizzo spoiling the creature in the first 30 seconds 😂 for real tho, I love this movie and this reaction is great, can’t wait to see more of your scary very serious reactions!
The autopsy and aubottomsy killed me and the crab leg resurrected me LMFAO
fun fact: there's concept art for scrapped pilot for thing tv mini series that would have taken place in a dessert.
"now here's the thing" honestly, S tier joke 😂 but you did absolutely spoil benji about the dog and the journey we all must go through of "wtf leave the dog alone" to "i dont trust that dog for a fuckin second" lol
This movie holds a special spot, it was one of the first horror movies my dad had me watch (I was probably 6 or 7) and loved it 😂
my dad is a helicopter pilot who did ten tours in Antarctica (between 1984 and 1996). This movie is a family favourite, but he's always said the least realistic thing in the whole movie is Kurt Russell's stupid cowboy hat 😂(and yes, you do need a sign for the tail rotor…)
Benji is right - the thing was being transported by the aliens in the ship and it escaped.
You should watch The Faculty. It's like and 90s teen based horror movie of The Thing.
This would be the best reaction from both of you guys……it’s like so 90’s also.
Have either of you seen Train to Busan? It's FANTASTIC, and usually, I have a tough time with foreign language films because ADHD but that one has me gripped from start to finish.
Honestly it's SO SO good
"Invasion of the Body Snatchers(1978)", "The Bad Seed(1956)", and "Carnival of Souls (1962)", are pretty good ones to watch.
Yaaaas! I fellow "The Bad Seed" fan!❤
Ditto for The Bad Seed!! 👍🏻
This movie was one of the first to genuinely have me on edge and I still love it. The fear of the unknown, the fear of betrayal and realizing you don't really know people at all, the body horror, and finding out what kind of person you are and doing what's right when it matters most, all on the back drop of the very real fear of being hopelessly stuck in an isolated and hostile environment - gah, it's just chefs kiss. The ending is still soo perfect for the story too. They freeze to death as they should or maybe one of em gets got by the other bc surprise monster. I don't know, I don't care - either way ty for nightmares I guess.
I recommend Stir of Echoes. Good creepy ghost story mystery 👻 and it has Kevin Bacon 😜
One of my favs and it doesn't get enough love.
Blair was himself when he sabotaged the communications. He didn't want the Thing to spread.
When they put him outside someone got to him. You can see the noose where he was going to take himself out but didn't get the chance.
This is one of the few ambiguous movie endings that I really liked.
THIS MOVIE IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE THE FIRST TIME YOU WATCH IT GOING IN BLIND. I WAS ABSOLUTELY INTHRALLED WITH THE MYSTERY AND TERROR OF THE TERRIFYING SPECIAL EFFECTS.
I love a lot of types of horror movies so here is a big list. Hope you enjoy:
Killer Klowns From Outer Space (a campy horror comedy ❤)
Trick R Treat ❤
Tucker and Dale vs Evil (this is a satire for horror films like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, it’s really fun)
The Final Girls (also a satire but for the summer camp horror movies)
Southbound (this is a horror movie I love but I don’t ever see get movie reactions, I don’t hear it get talked about much and I think that is a shame, I won’t explain anything cause I would love to see your reaction going in blind but it is definitely a take more serious one)
It Follows (i enjoyed this one)
Prom Night 2 (no, it has no connection to the first original Prom Night, very different, might as well not be related)
Rosemary’s Baby (it’s a classic horror and yet I don’t see much reactions to it)
The Stepfather 1987 (also a classic that got a remake, can ignore that)
If you are open to foreign horror films then…
Train to Busan (amazing South Korean zombie film from 2016)
Tigers Are Not Afraid (💔 A Mexican crime-fantasy horror film from 2017)
Las Brujas de Zugarramurdi (sometimes found under the name “Witching & Bitching”, a horror comedy from Spain)
I have so many more I can suggest but I’ll stop here for now 😊🙃
Also Gremlins because it’s a wonderful classic that’s hilarious
Haha killer clowns from outerspace is amazing
0:10 This was superbly executed. Rizzo, never change 😂
Can I recommend Gremlins? I don’t know if it really counts as a “horror” movie but it’s so funny and I feel like y’all would have a good reaction video to it
This movie is the definition of intrusive thoughts. I’m still haunted by the premise. Although I do remember a Ben 10 Episode that reminded me of this movie.
This is one of my favorite movies. Top 3.
Rizzo's mouth drops and Benji's quips made this reaction great!
I think 2007 “Death propf” would be such a fun reaction I loved Kurt Russell in it even tho he wasn’t the best person in it lmao it’s not scary….well depends how you look at it lol
the computer he destroyed was labeled 'Chess Wizard', because it was literally just for playing chess.
Antarctica Winter needs to team up with Eloise and the Queen for a special crossover event.
Great reaction. This is my favourite horror movie. It's based on the 1938 novel Who Goes There? Written by John W.Campbell Jr. It was first adapted as a film in 1951 which was called The Thing from Another World. This 1982 version is actually very close to the original book story. The 2011 prequel isn't nearly as good, but is still worth a watch. Subscribed 😊
❤️❤️
Unrelated to The Thing lol, but if you want to watch something else with Wilford Brimley in it, there's a really fun queer comedy called In & Out (1997) that I think you guys would love. He plays the main character's (Kevin Kline) dad, with Debbie Reynolds playing the mom, and it's got a mustacheless Tom Selleck and a hysterical Joan Cusack and it's honestly just such a fun little movie lol. Hope you guys check it out sometime 😁
This is my first time seeing your videos, glad you picked this movie! It is, literally, the pinnacle of practical special effects. I will say, dim the lights and try to stay off your phones to give these amazing horror films the chance they deserve to work on you! The other one that is in this league, but is also a (very, very dark) dark comedy is An American Werewolf in London (1981), looks like you watched Evil Dead but the much better, wildly fun one is Evil Dead 2 (1987), even Jaws (1975) may not be considered horror (?) but is very good - and more recently check out It Follows (2014) and Barbarian (2022). Enjoy!
Next, The Fly by David Cronenburg.
The Blob (1988) is a great reaction option. (also, i don't think it would make a great reaction, but Society (1989) is worth checking out, just for the special effects craziness in it at the least. the imdb synopsis spoils the movie a bit tho, but it's a great one to go in completely not knowing anything about it beforehand)
also, in that vein, Re-Animator would be a good one too. these are all a bit ... goopy, tho, i'm sure there are a million other good ones to watch 😅
I watched the original Blob (1958) on Creature Feature in Tampa, FL in the 80's. It was a local-ish show where a host in full-on campy, creepy makeup introduced a scary movie on Saturday afternoons. Scared the crap outta me as a kid.
So I have a fondness for that version, if only for the banger of an intro song. 🎶 It creeps and leaps and writhes and slides across the floor 🎶
@HyvaTuuli93 yes I love Reanimator!
Ok my suggestions are: Arachnophobia, Leprechaun 4 In Space, Critters 1 and Critters 2, The Burning, Relic, Vampire in Brooklyn, Bloody Birthday, and Maximum Overdrive.
I am here for vampire in Brooklyn 😂👏🏾 I just watched it and still hilarious
Benji you’re not alone, it took me a minute to figure out Rizzo’s joke.😂
I’m so excited to see what films you guys will choose to react to. Congratulations on your new channel, I’m going to enjoy it’s growth 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💀😎
Awesome! Thank you!
My favourite movie! I wish I could watch it for the first time again. If you understand Norwegian, supposedly the entire movie is spoiled in the first 5 minutes
Not the whole movie, but certainly the fact that the dog is a Thing. All the suspense that follows remains intact.
Glad this popped up, YT took away the channel links on the mobile app so I didn't know this was a thing!
I don’t know which one is the autopsy or which one is aubottomsy killed me 😂
I got too excited and now I'm here half an hourly... worth it.
This is my favorite horror movie of all time. Thank you for reacting to this!
Also there are three Blob films. The original in 1958, a tongue in cheek sequel made in the 70s and a remake in 1988.
I feel bad that Wilford Brimley's legacy to this generation is now only to be known as "Diabeetus" lmfao. Poor guy probably had a whole ass career. And now he's just, "Diabeetus".
He was so good in this movie yes!
First line, best line. "Is the thing a blob? No that's the blob " LoL 😂
Love how the mouth that shoots out of the Dog Thing is made of dogs tongues and teeth. So many little details in what, for me, is the gold standard for practical effects
I SCRUMPT. This is a fav of mine and I love you two and this is going to be great and Imma make my partner watch this with me again when they get home too 😂
You guys should watch *Yellowjackets!* It's an amazing horror show that I think you would absolutely love ♥
jeepers creepers , faculty, urban legend, misery
I believe the point at the end was that the bottles were supposedly filled with gas, right? So, the character Childs drank it like it was nothing. That’s why the music started.
Love these horror reactions from you guys ❤
This is my favorite horror movie! Such good fx and great storytelling.. love it.. loved ur reaction as usual.. but I did have absinthe tonight lol.. but I sleepaway camp if u have not done it
Hi, guys! I am a new subscriber here. Have you two ever seen John Carpenter's They Live? If not, you both have a great treat in store. Please Enjoy!😮😊
Fantastic reaction!, Benji?, in the pink Hoodie , when you said you think you saw the prequel, and you fell asleep on it, I was like huh, your not falling asleep on this one,..hmmpf, and when the thing breaks out, the dog, the chest huh, mouth crunching on doc's arms, the head dripping off the table, then trying to make it's escape (isn't that a sentence, the head trying to escape 🤢), and when Palmer's infected blood, huh, also trying to escape, leaping off the petri dish, ohh and Bennings thing, doing that God awful blood curdling scream,..just loved watching ya'll jump back away from the screen,..guy in the black shirt, honey you were just a deer in the headlights, mouth open, jaw dropped, not moving, I couldn't tell if you were breathing, huh,..when I went to see this 40 years ago, I was the same way,..unlike ya'll however, I made the mistake of buying a whole bunch of food, thinking I was just gonna chomp down through the whole movie, stopped eating after the dog break out,....had to cart everything home,..Benji saw you gag a couple times, ya'll were smart not to eat during this,..the critics weren't kind to this movie, but that's why I really don't pay attention to them anymore, just before this, Terminator came out,..Siskle of Siskel and Ebert wasn't keen on that one, Ebert was a more inclined scifi fan, think he liked the whole paranoia approach, but if I remember, not a fan of all the gore,..Carpenter, aside from, having it in for dogs😉, did a brilliant job here, the whole premise,.and the special effects people, magnificent job, detail, if this makes you sickened, like a first year med student carving up their first cadaver, then the effects are primo👌,.so thrilled that you recognized some of the actors, at that time, I only knew Russell, and T.K. Carter,..only reason I knew Russell, is because he did quite a few Disney movies, when he was much younger, it was quite surprising to see him play someone so hard, weathered, and yet still young(by the by, his son is his twin for crying out loud, and so you should see Gary Busey's son in Starship Troopers, he certainly is his twin!), and I can't remember if I recognized him, but Richard Dysart, aka doc, was in Prophecy(not Prophecy with Christopher Walken), before Thing,....do check that out, and you recognized Keith, yes, yess, he is certainly no stranger to scifi, do check out They Live, another Carpenter movie, and Wilfred Brimley,..I read an article that he was ex military, and the scene where they gang up on him to take him down, was no problem for him, the physicality of it, he took in stride,..I know he's known for the diabetes commercials, but he is a fine actor,..really,..so glad you enjoyed this, no cgi, all hands on sculpted, puppeteers, of horror,..do check out the trailers for Thing, first one deceptive, no clue what it may be about,, certainly not concerning aliens, The Hidden, as it's name suggests, an alien hidden, in plain sight,..also, check out Bad Moon,..another with a dog, but better story, for the dog anyway,..Godspeed, Peace ✌
I remember watching the Blob as a kid because I didn't know what the heck I was watching, I just remember thinking the blob was cute. I thought it was a giant bubblegum.
Yall should react to one of the timeline/theory videos for this film. I'd love to see yall's reaction to what could be goin on in this film.
I thought Benji was gonna say Antarctica Winter would be a great name for a drag queen. I was like there already a drag queen named Antarctica Winter, when I was actually thinking of Anna Wintour
The best horror movie ever made in my opinion. I cant think of a worse scenario to find yourself in. You're battling an intelligent alien and you dont know if its malicious or simply trying to survive, it can only be deleted via acid/fire, you cant tell an imitation without a very specific test, it can end you just by touching you and if it gets to water or transportation its not just the end of humanity, but the ENTIRE world. Every winter when i hear the wind howl i think of this movie. The dog deserved all the awards for this one ! Also, this film inspires me to get a flamethrower, cause....you never know 😂
Btw Blair wasn't infected until he was put in the shed. He was human before that.
Literal meaning of the word autopsy: the act of seeing with one's own eyes. Well applied to the Thing autopsy here. You'd have to see that weird shit with your own eyes to believe it.
Perfect imitation. All your memories everything. Your friend next to you could be a thing and you would never know
😬😬
My all time favorite Halloween re-watch! Great reaction ❤😊
yo i just stumbled on this channel, you guys are fuckin hilarious. the "heres the thing" killed me XD lol.
Man’s got the best hat in cinema history and you’re *laughing*
1:03 Sounds like the daughter of Carmen Sandiego. "I am Antarctica Winter. Trying forever to find my father-- Kentucky Autumn!"
Blair was definitely the thing when he's begging to come back in. Not before though
This movie had no CGI at all, everything was practical effects.
I've never thought about that before; that the thing was not the alien lifeform ship that crashed. Nice!
Slither is a fun under the radar horro/comedy that not many ppl know about/react to!
Fun to turn down the sound and just crack up at their shocked OOOO faces. Now watch Cube, Eight Legged Freaks, Lady in White, Slither They Kive, Stir of Echoes or Lake Placid. Fun scary instead of franchise-boring stabby stabby.
Lake Placid has Betty White!!! You have to watch it please.
Spoiler:
At the end when Childs is talking to RJ only RJ’s breath is visible in freezing weather suggesting Childs is not human
That isn't true. Child's breath is visible, it's just not as easy to see because of the lighting.
Oh you should definitely watch The Blob!! Watch all 3! :D
And maybe The Stuff? I'm just here waiting for The Stuff get the recognition is probably doesn't deserve
Well, it's very hard to hit a moving target, while you're moving too, while there's strong wind. The gloves and the cold don't help either. So yeah, very hard.
I was wondering why I wasn't subscribed and realized this is a horror channel for y'all! I'm going to enjoy this with the corny af jokes and the chill vibes 💙
😁😁
Can you do a video on Monster House? An animated scary kids movie released in 2006
“I guess the cold did bother him anyway.” 😂 then the evil Benji laughter. 😂👏🏽💞
😂😂😈
This is a Christmas movie to me idk why
OMG, Benji is being so cute and funny in this video, I laugh like crazy!!!
A small list of my favorite under-rated or quirky horror films.
Trick 'r Treat (2007) a fun anthology. Think Love Actually, but for Halloween
The Bad Seed (1956): Psychological horror... and great birth control lol.
13 Ghosts (2001): just some good fun.
Escape Room (2019): a real butt clencher
Cobweb (2023): brand spankin new and... different. I enjoyed it.
I'd love to see horror with more drama. Like Unfriended or Gerald's game. Where the horror is personal.
This is a really fun movie to watch more than once. It will give you a different perspective of who became infected, and when.
Definitely!
2:25 Nei det gjør du ikke! Det er ingen hund!
3:04 Trying to hit a moving target that small from a moving chopper is very hard to do. You have to aim low and do a negative lead.
3:48 Watch The Thing (2011) and you will see.
26:18 It can't do that, if it could, it would just infect there water supply.
Y’all need to do Death Proof! It was made for someone who is half Benji and half Rizzo. It’s weirdly Josey and the Pussycat-esque for a Tarantino film. Same with Planet Terror
Sounds awesome haha
this is part one of carpenters apocalypse trilogy , you should watch the others ,prince of darkness, and in the mouth of madness ! check them out !
If The Thing took over the world, and imitated all the scientists perfectly, would it still award itself a Nobel Prize?
I like in live chat, debating whether Benji would live or not
I love this channel. I love this movie!
To be fair, Benji. You did ask 😂
Let’s continue with the 80s and do The Monster Squad.
Horror recommendations from me would be: Return of the Living Dead, Ginger Snaps, Suspiria (2018), Def by Temptation, Evil Dead Trap, Repo the Genetic Opera (because I want to see you watch a horror musical), Night of the Demons, Bloody Mallory (which is like gay Buffy Power Rangers), Reanimator, and From Dusk til Dawn (would be amazing if you went in completely blind). A non horror movie I’d love to see you guys watch is the Wild Boys by Bertrand Mandico.
Such a great movie from John Carpenter. The effects and acting were great. Keith David & Kurt Russell both were good along with the rest.
6:58
Come on, everyone knows that the more ridiculous the hat, the warmer it is. 😂
No human, would drink from Mac’s bottle after going through all that.
I love this channel so MUCH
These are the last boys i thought would watch this on purpose.
Hopefully they'll do one of my personal favorites, Prince of Darkness.
"pRaY fOr dEaTh"
Some may say Bennings deserved it - you don't call Stevie Wonder 'crap' and get away with it!!
blair was building the ship to fly to the mainland !
You try shooting a moving target from a helicopter.
this movie is wild! yall should do the boogeyman (2023) next :D
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the practical effects. Miles better than many more recent movies and especially cgi.
Lovee y'all reactions 🤣🤣🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thank you!
CGI it, it's 1982🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The one you asked if it was a actor we know is Wilford Brimley, the oatmeal, man and diabetes commercials
