"I'd rather not spend the rest of this winter TIED TO THIS F*****G COUCH!" Makes me howl every time 🤣🤣🤣
That's what SHE said.
My favorite line from this flick
It's a Mood.
Quote that’s best represents pandemic
Yeah,and before this I only knew Moffat as playing the nice robot on TV series Hogan's Run.I think he was called Binary.
It's super rare for someone to realize that Blair is actually the most rational person on the base on first watch so props
For years I’ve heard people debate whether Blair was already infected when he sabotaged everything or not and for years I’ve never been able to figure it out man lol Norris and Palmer are trackable but when does blair get infected? I NEED ANSWERS MAN LOL
No,I would go Fuchs,and I also think HE is The Thing at the end.Faked his own death,they found only glasses rims and a couple of rags and went and lay down in the snow to freeze because as MaCready said it "Just wants to go to sleep and waite to be found".
@@shanechipman7157 While he was left alone. You see the noose. He probably wanted to hang himself when he was attacked. If he was infected before that, he wouldn't destroy the helicopter, he would've tried to blend in quietly, like Norris-thing and Palmer-thing did.
@shanechipman7157 I think he is infected, but not yet taken over. That's why he had a noose in the cabin he was locked in. He realized he was infected and planned to end himself, but the Thing took him over before he could do it. Then suddenly he was "Fine and want to rejoin the others."
John Carpenter should take great satisfaction that the film everyone dismissed as "garbage" when it premiered is now considered one of the greatest sci-fi/horror films ever made. Forty-year-old practical effects rival the best CGI of today, enough to make Cam nearly puke on camera!
Its crazy to think that this movie din't do well or wasn't well received at the time.
When you see the cult following and that this movie is pretty much become a case study for Atmospheric storytelling.
Whats even more crazy is that it was pretty much the fate of All Carpenter's movies, i mean, Big trouble in Little china got the same fate, paned by critics, audiences din't know what the movie wanted to be.
And years later did extremely well on the VHS and laser disc market and became a cult classic for fans and anyone who watches it todays...
@@MugthrakaWell it had something to do with E.T and other fantasy esque movies that were coming out that same year (which had a véry different tone), and at the end of 1982 this movie suddenly came around the corner.
People were simply not prepared for this and were shocked to the core. Most didn't even make it past the dog scene I heard.
I get a huge kick out of watching first time reactions to The Thing, and you guys are priceless.
Novella - Who Goes There? - 1938
Film - The Thing From Another World - 1951 (first adaptation)
Film - The Thing - 1982 (reimagining of the 1938 source material)
Film - The Thing - 2011 (unofficial "prequel" to the 1982 film)
Carpenter calls 3 films his "Apocalypse Trilogy", although they are not directly connected, other than their bleak endings and underlying tones -
The Thing - 1982
Prince of Darkness - 1987
In the Mouth of Madness - 1995
When Blair was using the computer he figured out that if The Thing gets to a populated area the Entire World would be infected 27, 000 hours later just a little more than THREE YEARS.
The guy who made the practical special effects for this movie ( he also did Legend ) suffered a mental health breakdown due to overworked hours trying to get it all done by the time frame.
I didn't know that. Legend is one of my favorite movies ever. He was a talented guy.
(Everyone watching "The Thing" for the first time)-
NO DON'T KILL THE DOG!
(20 minutes later)
*OMFG KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!*
BTW: The Norwegian was actually saying to the crew that it wasn't a real dog, but a thing. Of course if you are Norwegian and watching this, that little tidbit was spoiled.
omg that would suck lmao! is that actually how it aired in Norway or did they at least have a voice over with a different language?
@@AnnietheRedheadSomeone who watched it in theaters said yes.
Yeah, he said Get the hell away! That's not a dog, it's some sort of thing! It's imitating a dog, it isn't real! GET AWAY, YOU IDIOTS!
It's great to see young people who are so damn articulate, funny, and have great screen presence.
You guys will reach 100K one day.
Good luck.
This movie came out the year I graduated high school. I left the movie theater traumatized. Aside from Alien, we never seen anything like this... ever. Brilliant effects.
Easy there Harvey Weinstein
@@satisfactionguaranteed5355 Weinstein used his position of power to get actresses to have sex with him.
WTF are you talking about?
"His head ate his face!" Priceless!
That dog deserves an Academy Award. Cam was hilarious on this reaction.
I watched the making of stuff for this film the other day, and apparently it was a mixture between a Husky and a wolf. All the cast members were scared of it.
@@arnodk2852Jed X Stan Winston collab.
10:20 The practical effects team would be THRILLED to see this reaction 😱😂🥶👽 Easily one of my favorite horror films *ever.*
IKR? A 40 year old movie with practical effects that can still scare the shit out of people! The best compliment ever!
What amazes me is just how badly the critics savaged it. This film was a massive failure both critically and at the box office.
@@wackyvorlon And now in 2022 we know it's a MASTERPIECE OF HORROR by JOHN CARPENTER who got scared of the Original Movie when he saw it as a kid! And JAMES ARNESS (Marshall Dillion from the old TV Western Series; GUNSMOKE, ) was The Thing in the original movie.
@@wackyvorlon Yep, and apparently at the time, people wanted friendly aliens like E.T. over aliens like what the Thing had.
Shame the movie didn't do well on release and probably because of timing, and overtime, became a cult classic that I remember far more than I remember E.T.
I think what would have made this movie as well as the Predator movie better is if it didn't have the alien ship flying into earth at the start, it would have kept the audience in the dark and we wouldn't have a clue what was going on, but because of the alien part and how desperate he was to shoot that dog, I knew there was something up either with the dog or with him, if it wasn't for the alien bit at the start, we wouldn't have had a clue what was going on till the alien showed it's self, and that's when we throw up lol, which I do wonder how many did at the cinema lol.
Good to see first time reactors actually appreciate the ending, most reactors hate it. I think it's the perfect way to end it, myself.
You young guys are so funny and entertaining with you reactions it's awesome !!! I'm 60 years old guys and when I 1st saw this I was 19 years old and in the Navy !!!!! It gave me nightmares for weeks and I didn't watch it again for ten years !!!!! Now I've probably seen it over 1 hundred times !!!! I was just waiting for you guys to do this one !!!! I haven't started yet because I wanted to comment this to you before I started watching you guys !!!! I'm so looking forward to your screaming reactions !!!!!!! 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Same. It’s nice we get to relive all these great 80’s movies along with some new viewers.
Calm down there you old flamer sailor…. They’re barely 18
@@satisfactionguaranteed5355 Your a real punk trouble maker !! I met a few in the military like you !!! After their actions I left them bleed for a while , to bad I can't do the same to you !!! Nothing like bleeding busted knuckles on trash like you !!!! I was way more relentless then to bad I can't see you face to face !!!! Probably the typical bully in school !!! Your the kind why school shootings happen too bad you weren't one of them you punk scoundrel !!!!!🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷
Old geezer here too!
This film was definitely a nightmare-maker when I first saw it in the 90s as a kid. It's great to see it still so effective all these years later. Well done, John Carpenter.
To THIS day, in my family, whenever you can’t find something we always say, it’s “gone Macready!”
12:45: "When this thing attacked our dogs, it tried to digest them. And in the process, it developed diabeetus."
“What is that thing?!”
Yes, exactly. 😁
Oh, how I miss the 80's practical effects! Guys, you are amazing. Big hug from Brazil.
Big hug from, Australia 🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
This is my favorite movie of all time so I love watching other people react to it. Every single person reacts the same way at the start with the dog, it's amazing 🤣🤣🤣🤣
When I was a kid I loved comedy and horror. This was one of my favorites because it scared me a bit. If a horror movie does not scare you, what is the point? That is just wasted time.
The irony is that the 'thing' probably just wanted to go home.
Carpenter's finest achievement and in general one of the finest directorial efforts ever, imo. What he accomplished here is so underappreciated. People just focus on the special effects but its got a smart script and incredible performances and unbelievable atmosphere,score,sound. Carpenter was a master chef here.
_"His head ate his face!"_
LOL, easily one of the most entertaining reactions to this film I've seen.
Even though it was an all star cast, I think that the Dog really gave the best performance. The hallway scene, where he pauses before going into "someone's" room was particularly great.
I love that despite how old this film is, the practical effects still freak people out.
Your reaction is amazing. I can just imagine you running out the theatre if you actually saw it back in the day in fear. And many people did back when it came it. It's a classic for a reason.
As a side note, the shadow of the person in the room the dog went into is not of any of the actors in the movie. The used one of the cast of the crew to not give away who was the thing.
One of the greatest movies ever made.
Late response: The blood was practical, the "hand" holding the dish was fake and a puppet shoots out of the arm and dish for the blood monster effect. Amazing how we forgot how to do things practically after CGI came.
Bruh, the blood testing with the hot needle is PERFECT….. it’s exactly how you build suspense and tension….. and the whole sequence is completely disgusting, which is amazing. Btw, there is a mistake in that scene: when the Thing jumps to the ceiling, they shot that scene upside down, meaning, the ceiling was actually the floor, and inverted the take; you can see a piece of the ceiling giving it away as it bounces downwards and back to the ceiling, defying gravity😅
Favorite moment? The dog face splitting open like a flower blooms.
Edit: My favorite movie of all time, and Cam’s reaction to Dogtown was EVERYTHING I needed today.
Love your reaction. The practical effects in this is so much better than any cgi. There's a prequel to this also called the thing' which shows what happened in the Norwegian camp. It wasn't good but gives you more back story. This 1980 version is actually a remake itself from the 1950s horror set in Alaska. Theres never been a sequel but with renewed interest thanks to RUclips reactors like you and Google which chose this movie to comment on, John carpenter has said he'd be down to do it. So well see!
"The Making of The Thing" is a must watch documentary on YT. The interviews with the cast & crew are great.
YES I saw this literally one day before it was stuck by copyright 💀💀💀💀 this is one of my fav movies and your reaction is LITERALLY my favourite on youtube now
Y’all’s reaction was classic. This movie is still on my watchlist at least twice a week. I tripped me out as a child & it gives me paranoid vibes now. To find out what happened to the Norwegian crew & how the dudes had their heads fused together, try out The Thing(2011)…a great watch, just don’t listen to the haters about it 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
The spaceship WAS real - a practical model, lights and everything. You can find a video of it on RUclips. The blood was also real; they just tilted the floor it was on and the camera was attached. There was no CGI. The big Thing at the end was stop motion when it burst out of the floor.
Best practical effects ever. The absolute peak. Checkout the fly movie from around the same time. It's a classic as well.
And now for some movie recommendations. Mostly scary, some gruesome, all good:
.
Jaws (1975) - "You'll never go back in the water again."
.
Alien (1979) - "In space, no one can hear you scream."
.
Predator (1987) - Any movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse "The Body" Ventura can't be all bad.
.
Full Metal Jacket (1989) - "What is your major malfunction?!?!" The actor playing the drill sergeant (R. Lee Ermey) was a real Vietnam War era drill sergeant. His barracks "monologue" was very accurate. This one is along the same lines as "Hacksaw Ridge"
.
Paranormal Activity (2007) - After watching this, my friend Brandon (no relation to the "Let's Go, Brandon" guy) started sleeping with his .45 pistol under his pillow; as if you could shoot a ghost.
.
Event Horizon (1997) - "Infinite Space, Infinite Terror"
You guys are legit, I've had a blast all day today watching tons of some of my favorite movies with you guys again and this one takes the cake.
This is probobly THE BEST reaction to The Thing I have ever seen!
I finally watched this movie for the first time a couple of months ago and literally about threw up 5 times. I barely got through it. I had to keep pausing and walking away. I had straight indigestion for days because it this movie. The practical effects were so good at being disgesting. Blergh. So I relate, Cam. lol
Did you notice that both of them drank from the same bottle in the end?
Earlier they made it a point not to eat and drink from the same sources in order to not get infected that way.
So, what does that mean?
Are both of them infected?
Is neither of them and they just didn't care with all the stress?
Who knows.
Also I love the fact that Blair, played awesomely by Wilford Brimley, became the "final boss" if you want to call it that way despite the fact that he was the first one who realized what had to be done in order to make sure the thing would not survive.
He got infected while he was in the shed, possibly while he was eating when they asked him about Fuchs.
Another thing is that the creature is not really a crew member of of the crashed ship.
We learn that it carries memories from its' hosts from infection to infection so it is very likely that the crew also got infected at some point which led to the ship crashing.
Well, actually you kind of get an answer to that in the making off of the prequel from 2011.
They didn't put it in the movie but the things' first form is very different from what the aliens look like, which, as I said we do not get to see in the actual movie, which is the reason I am mentioning it as it is not an actual spoiler.
Kurt was playing chess in the beginning. Kurt handed his bottle to Childs in last scene, but they are not supposed to share. Childs drank. Kurt laughs. checkmate. Childs is the THING. Then Childs is not expelling frozen breath as Kurt does.
OR MacReady was the thing and wanted to infect Childs. A drop of saliva in the bottle would have been enough.
Checkmate as well.
Also the thing was copying humans perfectly as Blair said.
As long as the body was meant to be alive it would be breathing, meaning it too would have expelled frozen breath.
Well, unless Childs just was just too much cooled down already, which, given the fact that he was outside for a longer time sounds rather likely.
In the end the breath means nothing.
The bottle means nothing.
Each and every theory we come up with means nothing as nothing of it can ever be proven.
Neither Carpenter nor anyone else who would know tells.
So we will keep guessing till the end of time.
And I think that's a good thing.
Nevertheless...... it's still a lot of fun to keep guessing.
Truth be told I don't think they ever made an actual decision if one of them is truly the thing or not.
After all, if the answer doesn't even exist it cannot be found.
And if it cannot be found the question will stay in the audiences mind.
The movie is old but people are still talking about it as if it were new. @@fairedepeche
The 2011 "The Thing" isn't a version of the 1982, or the 1951 "The Thing From Another World", it is actually a 'prequel' to the 1982 storyline, and set in the same year. It shows the event that led up to the Norwegians chasing the dog at the beginning of John Carpenter's The Thing.
“His head ate his face”!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nice to see youth get a kick out of and show an appreciation to films that were made before you were born . Great videos guys.
If there ever were a sequel where it makes it to the world, it would essentially be a retelling of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
Nothing like the body snatachers the thing is a perfect imitation not just physical form but the persons personality there emotions it’s the complete imitation the body snatchers imitate your physical form but there empty void of emotion personality there basically like ROBOTS and that’s not a perfect imitation you would no it wasent your family friend work colleagues you’d no because there personality is missing and that’s what makes you what you are that’s a major weakness for the body snatchers the thing IS a whole imitation personality emotions what makes people human it’s not just about the body physical form so it’s different
Probably worth flagging that when you see a movie that is earlier than late-1980s, effects that look real won't be CGI because they can't be, as CGI hadn't reached a point before the mid-80s where they could be incorporated into action in a convincing way (as computing power/software tools just weren't advanced enough yet). So other than doing things on-set with real practical models, makeup or prosthetics, the only option was either superimposing/optical camera effects (what you'd now call green screen) or stop-motion animation being composited into live action scenes.
I'm glad you both are reacting to this one. It has some of the best practical effects of all time.
And no CGI whatsoever.
One of the greatest films ever made.
And NO 'CGI' EFFECTS!! All PRACTICAL HAND MADE MONSTER STUFF!! The Burning Body that ATE THE ARMS off The DOCTOR SCENE got out of hand actually because the FX TEAM didn't take into account HOW LOW THE ROOF WAS and set it on Fire also filling the set with THICK CHOKING SMOKE!! YIKES!!
To me the character with the most tragic and compelling fate by far is Fuchs, even though he's not one of the major characters. We know little about him except that he's smart and conscientious (studying Blair's notes). Suddenly he's trapped outside in the storming night, alone except for... His choice- accept takeover and assimilation to The Thing, or die horribly of burning, clutching his flaming, sulphur spewing flare to his agonized body, and die in his humanity. A hellish, haunting fate that points to courage, quite unlike the splashy visual set pieces that attend the other characters kill scenes. It's all in the writing.
I saw this in the theater back in June for the 40th anniversary and it was amazing. Packed theater too
Same here
One of the best horror flicks of its time. Your reactions are so brilliant.
Cam and Zay,..it's such a joy, to see a new generation be scared shitless, some 40 years later, of this masterpiece,..absolute joy,..some think the movies back then would not be good, but again Carpenter proved that's not the case,..so very glad to see you wisely didn't eat, huh just before or during the movie,..I made the mistake, disregarded a fellow movie goer's warning not to eat, and just barely by the skin of my teeth,..was able to even keep down what I had just eaten 20 minutes into the movie,..and for those of us who warn others, not to eat, feel totally vindicated,..told ya'll!!, seeing you Cam,..huh just trying to keep your stomach in,..lol,..and the fact that all the effects were practical, you almost vomiting is a testament to how well it was all done,..when I saw this I hadn't even seen Alien, so there was nothing close, to what could've prepared me for such carnage, except for Jaws,.not even the Blob,..or Prophecy, which by the by Richard Dysart, aka Doc , is also in,..your screams of terror were hilarious, and Jay, I swear I lost count how many times you had to pick your jaw up off the floor,..ohh young people,..do keep going,..there is another who's human, who's not, The Hidden,..there's an unbelievable scene in the very beginning, that should drop your jaws, and a whole lot of action, and humor, do enjoy, Godspeed, Peace ✌
This was prosthetics. Way better than modern horror CGI.
For those interested, there's a short story written from the creature's perspective:
The Things, by Peter Watts
The Story was written in 1938 titled "Who Goes There?". The film they were watching with the people outlining the UFO was from a film called "The Thing" made in the 1950's with James Arness as the monster.
Fear of the unknown operates all the way through this film. Even at the end: did they defeat it? Is it one of them? Did it escape? Will it freeze and take over a rescue crew and make it's way to civilization? It's left open as an unknown.
Another point that I got from y’all at the beginning: one of my African American students straight up asked me out of the blue: “why is it that all black guys get killed in horror movies?!?!” I said, “I get your concern, but watch “The Thing” the main African American character lives until the end…” he told me, “You Cap!!!!” Then I pulled up the end for the class to see(as a teacher, I had to avoid the rest of the movie)the kid was like “Wow, Childs is the shit”….I stated “That he is!!!” 🤣🤣💀🤣💀🤣
I think the “who’s the killer” plot you were stuck on originated from the 1950s version is the book it was based on. It was called “Who goes there?”
Watching people watch The Thing got me into reaction videos, and I have to say this is the best reaction to this film I've seen yet! Great commentary guys. And super quick to to realize the dog is suspect and should not be cuddled!
The flower thing that flies out of the dog before it gets torched is made out of dog tongues and teeth lol.
can you imagine critics hated this movie when it first came out......goes to show how critics can be so wrong.
I remember going to a theater to see this when it first came out. There were still lines to see "ET" which premiered 2 weeks earlier, while there were very few people in the theater with me to see "The Thing". America wanted cute aliens not scary ones. I spent the next month trying to convince my friends to see "The Thing", and the few who did thanked me. Forty plus years later and "The Thing" has a higher rating at IMDB than "ET" and is rightly considered one of the greatest Sci-Fi/Horror films ever. It also may be why we have another classic film. Tarantino was a huge fan of "The Thing" and set out to make a movie that emulated the relentless paranoia in "The Thing", which resulted in "Reservoir Dogs".
Thanks for the reupload. You are not the only ones who had to to this with this film. If you want a slightly less bloody but awesome film, try Dog Soldiers(2002).
Yes! I want more people to experience Dog Soldiers!
@@mindime1499 Thanks Lady, it's good to see that Dog Soldiers gets talked about because of it's REALISM. Scary stuff when watching it at night!
The man responsible for the incredible practical affects is Rob Bottin. He was 22 when he filmed this and Carpenter gave him carte blanche on the design and build. His schedule was so rampant that he was hospitalized for pneumonia and physical exhaustion.
And Bottin worked with Rick Baker on several films as well. Baker is the mind behind Amercian Werewolf in London.
You two should react to "Scanners" (1981), starring Michael Ironside. Amazing movie!!
During the blood test scene, Palmer was the last person whose blood was drawn. He is at the end of the group of people that were tied down.
This movie is a pure brilliant! CLASSIC SCI-FI HORROR!
John Carpenter also wrote, directed, and created the soundtrack for the original HALLOWEEN, my favorite horror flick ever. Also see Kurt Russell as Snake Pliskin in Carpenter's ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK. Fantastic.
I saw _The Thing_ on cable in May 1983 when I was 12. As much as I loved it, it scared the hell out of me. I didn't sleep much at all for the first few days after, and not especially well for about a week.
I have a bit of paranoia about people, and trusting them. I had dreams about my neighbors being The Thing, and warning people to stay away from them and their pets. I had dreams like that into my early 20s.
Easily the most terrifying monster ever depicted on screen.
Y’all have one of the best reaction. Genuine, funny , actually pay attention lol and insightful commentary bravo I’ve been binging videos.
I love the idea that if you watch this movie and know Norwegian, the plot is basically spoiled in the first few minutes
One of my favorite horror movies. I watch it every Halloween. Between Cam getting grossed out (And for good reason!) and Zay having to pick his jaw up off the floor numerous times, this is one of my favorite reaction videos. You guys need to check out another SciFi/Gothic horror movie, Ridley Scott's Alien (1979).
Cam's reaction to this is my all time favorite of any of the RUclipsrs who reacted to this. Classic flick I saw in the theater at 12 😁
If you guys want to watch another awesome movie with great special effects, I suggest "The Fly".
I appreciate that someone else had the same reaction to the blood scene that I did. That scared the hell outta me the first time I saw it
American Werewolf in London is another film with great practical fx.
Watching this made my day. Oh man. I've been going through your guys' scary stuff for the month and this hit the spot.
1. The Norwegian killed himself so The Thing couldn't get to him.
2. The ultimate hand grenade throwing FAIL 🙄🙄
3. You have to realize that this movie came out long before CGI so there was some very creative special effects goin down here.
4. Mac's not a murderer. Clark was attacking him with the scalpel. It was self defense.
5. Of everything that went down the part that got me the most was when Blair was dragging Gary by the face.
6. Their fate is left up to the audience. Maybe it's best they all die.
7. Another Russell/Carpenter product you need to first time/share with us is "Escape from New York".
It's a good thing you two didn't freak out🙄🙄🤣🤣
That's what makes it fun for me😎
Still one of the coolest most stressful creature features ever. And yeah this might be the pinnacle of practical FX.
"Who is Who" at the end...
Both Childs and MacReady passed the blood test- so they were not Things up until then. We stay on Mac up until the end, so it's easy to assume he wasn't assimilated.
Now Childs- we did lose sight of him... However Childs had the flamethrower with him at the end- If Childs was a Thing, Mac could not have stopped Childs from blasting Mac with the flamethrower. He doesn't do it. Childs doesn't try to attack/assimilate Mac either.
No Mac didn't hand Childs a bottle of gasoline to drink. It wasn't Mac's "last test" as a final way of proving Childs is a Thing when he shares the drink with him. What Mac is doing is letting go of all the animosity and mistrust between them. And Childs gladly accepts the drink. They've let go of their hate for each other, knowing they have saved the World. This is the "happy ending."
Except that there's a hole between Mac blowing up Blairthing and him stumbling back into view, and how the fuck did he survive that?
It's great when practical effects over forty years old still have the power to shock, disgust, and terrify.
They haven't done it yet, and I don't know if anything regarding a sequel to John Carpenter's The Thing is in the works, but I sure hope they do make a sequel. They've already done a prequel with the 2011 The Thing, which covered the original discovery of the spaceship and the alien organism by the Norwegian escovation team. If they do decide to make a next installment, they should pattern it after the 2002 video game put out by Konami and Black Label Games. That story of that game was set to be held as the "sequel" to the 1982 film. The story focuses on Captain Blake, a member of a U.S. Special Forces team sent to the Antarctic outpost featured in the film to determine what has happened to the research team. Only to find himself caught in an invisible fight for survival against the titular shape-shifting alien, who seemingly has regained life despite being destroyed at the end of the film. Other survivors encountered and ordered by Blake assist the battle against the creatures different forms, all while being fully aware that they can trust no-one. I heard that John Carpenter himself personally endorsed the game, so there is high hopes that if they indeed make a sequel to the 1982 story, it will follow suit with the game's storyline. I played that game back when it came out in 2002, and I remember it was very scary, intense, nerve racking to play.
Great reaction guys. You really got it, too.
Funfact: If you wanna know which one of them was The Thing, look at their breath at the end.. only one of them had visible breath
Liked watching this reaction to one of my favourite films. The breakdown at the end was on point. Watching how you reacted to some of the events in the movie was funny as😂
I saw this in the theater and that jump scare had me out of my seat!
Oh nice, such a classic.
Great reaction, guys
the left person looks like his head is about to explode lol
I probably mentioned this before on the previous upload, but few people watching this movie realize that there is no B Plot. The A Plot moves like a freight train and there is no room for any side story, no romance, no subplot, no nothing. It's pure paranoia.
I love it when you guys do horror movies because Cam gets the funniest expressions on his face when he gets grossed-out, lol!😂😂😂
Cam you had dying with laughter when the dog transformed lolz.
I love your reaction channel! In this movie, notice that Blaire uses a pencil eraser to touch a dead Norwegian thing-body, and then, he touches the eraser to his lips as he talks! Also, the rule to survive was to never share food. At the end, MacReady shares his J&B bourbon bottle with Childs who gladly accepts a drink. MacReady smiles. This is either an evil smile, if MacReady is a thing. Childs was careless to accept a drink at the end. It either means Childs is already infected and he doesn't care about the food/drink rule. Which would make MacReady's smile a heroic one instead. It's cryptic but also clear that Blaire was scared about the 270000 hours of spread rate and he wanted it avoided, even by destroying the helicopter, but because he was infected, he was excited about the spread rate data and trying to build a ship to take the virus to other continents. MacReady could be one. His smile at the end is either heroic or sinister.
For some reason, almost all the women who react to this movie are so obsessed with the dog's safety, that they can't comprehend the dog might be the alien until it actually transforms. Good on you guys for actually thinking about why they were shooting at the dog.
Great the first time, still great.
Stay true to yourselves and your channel will go far.
so glad u guys enjoyed it. and im very glad i found your channel. its nice to see the younger generations appreciate practical special effects and especially when combined with a great story line. recently i found the three "Thing" movies in a box set at our local walmart. it included this one, the original 1951 version and the 2011 prequel. the original was completely different in that it was far less gory but still worth a view. just dont expect great special effects. the 2011 prequel was a decent story but they overused the CGi which felt like a let down. but it at least explains the dog being chased by the helicopter in the beginning of this one. you guys might want to take a look, if you havent already done so. i'm hoping to watch more of your reactions. you guys have definitely earned a subscribe and like!
