This video is the most definitive guide on You Tube covering John Carpenters 1982 film The Thing. The video begins with the genesis of the story, the 1951 adaptation of Who Goes There as well as the British Horror film Horror Express. From there we cover John Carpenter's involvement to casting, filming, effects, post production, marketing and eventual release noting the competition this film had and box office numbers. When all that is covered it's time to look at the film. We explore all of the theories in the movie and all sides while covering details, the exact timeline of the movie, cast stories, deleted scenes and alternate scripts that give insights into the film. For the theories we give you all the information so YOU can come to your own conclusion. This video is a merging of our Thing series made two years before this episode and we want to note for about 10 minutes in this series we did something we never did before or since. We tried utilizing AI images that could visually describe scenes in scripts never realized. We really did not like the process but we tried it out and at the time we were still learning our way. So if you are easily offended by AI, oh well, we tried it and we know there are people who despise us for doing so and they happily expressed it when this first released. However for those of you of more even temperance who does not like AI be assured we have zero intention of using such tools in the future and we felt it would be wrong to change our original videos as hundreds gave thumbs up to them and I did not want to change it as a result.
