"I'm gonna hide this tape when I'm finished. If none of us make it, at least there'll be some kind of record. The storm's been hitting us hard now for 48 hours. We still have nothing to go on. One other thing: I think it rips through your clothes when it takes you over. Windows found some shredded long johns, but the nametag was missing. They could be anybody's. Nobody... nobody trusts anybody now, and we're all very tired. Nothing else I can do, just wait... R.J. MacReady, helicopter pilot, US outpost number 31."
Love this damn movie. The idea of having something that can perfectly copy something else that is living and then act exactly like it is terrifying. Cant imagine being stuck in the middle of nowhere with a group and having to figure out who is real and who is the monster.
And to think that the short story this movie is based on (John Campbell's 'Who Goes There?') came out in the 30s. Scientifically speaking, this is an organism who's cells can selectively differentiate, becoming whatever they need to to mimic any kind of host they interact with. Technically, during the change, it would put out a LOT of waste heat during the cellular transition, but I'm thinking it could recycle that heat internally as an incidental energy source.
I lhave been listening to this several times a week for the better part of a year... Odd that I come to The Thing to help me relax and focus. Thanks for making it!
@@ashleywalker1411 Yes, I wonder what secrets are really hidden in Antarctica. Based on the movies, I think the outpost with MacReady and crew was just a resupply depot to support scientific teams. The Norwegian team separately discovered a craft frozen in ice, locked away for millenia.
Like the first, I love the deep blue effect. The animation gives a contrasting wind chill feel compared to the dead cold of the first video which had a deeper sense dread whereas this one approaches on the more mysterious and subtly ominous. I don't know which I like better between the two though. On another note, if you're gonna continue on iconic 80s film soundtracks, I'd recommend The Beast (1988). That's a seriously underrated and less recognized film with an amazing score that perfectly suits the atmosphere you tend to transition these tracks into.
You might want to pick up Peter Watts' retelling of the 1982 movie through the Thing's perspective, titled 'The Things'. EXCELLENT story and damned creepy the way he describes it. Try reading THAT while listening to this music...
Got a cousin that married a Norwegian man and went there to live with him. In order to be eligible, she had to learn and prove she could speak Norwegian and she had to have a job within a certain amount of time, otherwise, she'd be deported. In other words, she had to both ASSIMILATE into the culture and BE PRODUCTIVE. We need more of that here in the States.
Imagine after almost being killed by the Norwegians, the dog-Thing ventures out into the storm and sits staring at the base while contemplating its next move, completely unbothered by the cold.

‘Well…..the backscatter effect’s been bringing things up from way down around here for a long time,I’d say…….I’d say the ice it’s buried in is a 100,000 years old …at least!’
Don't u get it, it got no place go just what go to sleep Wait for rescue team to found it. Where not going let that happen just going have warm things up a beat.
"Why don't we just wait here for a little while... see what happens."
famous last words 😅😅😅
"The fire has the temperature up all over the camp...won't last long though"
*Grimly chuckles.*
@@Dae2Day. How will we make it.
@@JohnDoe-in9lc "What can we do?!"
"Mac wants the flamethrower!"
"Mac wants WHAT?"
"Get your ass over here"
"Dammit childs torch it"
"That's what he said! Now mooove!!"
Macready"you heard me"!
"WINDOWS, BURN HIM!"
I've always wondered why an Antarctic research station would have a military flame thrower.
I love the dog looking at the buildings, super creepy and cool!
I Don't think it's A Dog....
@@Heisen2420 I don't think it's alive, but frozen in place. It gets pretty cold there at Big Magnet.
this is my favorite monster/horror movie.
"I know you boys have been through a lot....but when you find the time, I'd like to not spend the rest of the winter tied to this F#$king couch!!!!!"
Excellent delivery of that line.
@@ALIENWORLD favorite movie of all time lol
Awesome dialog. 👌
@@robertgarcia5809 the best! 👏
My mom's favorite line. 😂

So good. One of my all time favorite flicks. Scared the living shit out of me when I was a kid.
"You gotta be f@cking kidding me...!"
(...spider head walks past)
“First goddamn week of winter…”
Which makes it a christmas movie.

Generator is gone. “Anyway we can fix it?” It’s gone Mcready!
Whatever we do we can't let that thing freeze again.
So glad you finally uploaded another the thing ambiance. Great work
Edit: this one is even better than the first!
It got to a point where it was requested on a number of occasions and I heard dogs barking in my sleep so I thought it was time 👀
@@ALIENWORLD you'd better run then!
@@RapidActionAnimations I think I'll just wait here for a little while... see what happens.
@@ALIENWORLD Love the way you blended the music in slower with those erie moans from the thing. Great job seriously.
@@ALIENWORLDalien world"why don't we just wait here for a little while..see what happens" me"ohhhh do we have too"? Alien world"yes"
One would think after an hour the dog would be covered in snow and such ❄️ 👀
its not a dog mister,it s an imitation!
@@dimitriskotsks389(BANG)(SLUMP)!!!!!
Thumbs up, just because it's "The Thing"
Do you ever wonder or has anyone ever asked John Carpenter, what were the Norwegians, Mac and the boys studying at that outpost?
@@ashleywalker1411 Yes, I wonder what secrets are really hidden in Antarctica. Based on the movies, I think the outpost with MacReady and crew was just a resupply depot to support scientific teams. The Norwegian team separately discovered a craft frozen in ice, locked away for millenia.
One ofg the best ambient versions of this "The Thing"-theme ... I ever enjoeyed !
Thank You so much !
Someone let that Huskey in, poor boy must be freezing out in the cold...
its an imitation of husky
Famous last words...
And that's how you died
You chose to share its sentiment.
But your freezing will be due to paranoia

That is quite the analysis ☕️ much appreciated 👽
This is brilliant. I listened to this in bed. Fell asleep and had the scariest nightmare. My fault, but damn. Best nightmare Ive ever had.
Some nightmares are the best that put one to sleep 😊
was it about the thing?
“Get away from it! That’s not a dog, it’s some sort of thing! It’s imitating a dog, it isn’t real! GET AWAY FROM IT YOU IDIOTS!”
(BANG)(SLUMP)!!!!
“You guys gonna listen to Gary? He could be one of those things!”
Has anyone seen fuchs. Lights were out in there for over an hour anyone of us could have gotten to him.
Awesome job. This would be a great soundtrack choice if they made a new Thing game/movie.
Oh, this is just perfect for my reading! Thank you so much for a whole hour of this terrifying relaxation 🤩

Freaking amazing man, Thanks!
I love this movie!!! best of the best!!!
First goddamn week of winter
Marry Christmas
this is so amazing, thank you.
A classic horror movie.
A second listen immediately afterwards. It's easier to edit a video when you have something really good to listen to.
They’re not Swedish, Mac, they’re Norwegian!

Anticipatory!
THERE GOES THAT DAMN DOG LOOK OUT
🐺
Such a beautiful pupper 🐺
Blair: Watch Clark 😳👀
"And watch him close you hear me"
It aint Fuchs
Can you pls create some more from the things soundtrack?
Awesome!
"But, MacReady I know Bennings! I've known him for ten years... he's my friend! "
"We gotta burn the rest of 'em." 🔥
Remember...trust no one
I LIKE IT.
Love it

You got to be f@$#ing kidding ! 🥶💙💯
Carpenter nailed it. Pun intended.
‘Well…..the backscatter effect’s been bringing things up from way down around here for a long time,I’d say…….I’d say the ice it’s buried in is a 100,000 years old …at least!’
i love this!
IT'S BENNINGS!
Would've been cool to see the lights in the base slowly go out one by one
Wait....where's Blair?
Easily one of the best atmospheric horror thrillers out there.
Anyone got any other recommendations?
“Nobody trusts anybody now… and we're all very tired.”
Trust is a hard thing to come by these days.
"How about trusting in the Lord"
God I love this movie
🙏🏼
I just want to get up to my shack and get drunk.
I’m a real light sleeper Childs.
Nauls can you turn that crap down? I was shot today!
The kind of time you need to hide in a warm place.

Their Norwegian, Mac
First thought at fade-in was "Beautiful"
Generator room
Any way we can fix it?
It's gone
Too much wind sound fix and not enough Morricone score. The wind is too loud and Morricone’s score is too quiet. : (
All levels are where they are meant to be for the specific project.
ese perro me pone nervioso🤐
