You know Keith David was the Thing at the end, right?
(It took me like 20 years to figure this out so now I always talk about it when I see the movie mentioned)
How do you know? I thought the point of the ending is that by that point, either of them might be it.
🧠 Because they'd agreed to not to share drinks for fear of contamination. Kurt Russell offers Keith David whiskey, and Keith should've rejected it as possibly contaminated. Instead he just drinks it because the Thing doesn't know about the agreement.
That's why Kurt smiles (it gave itself away) and the Thing's theme song starts playing immediately. Then it goes to black...

The thing is awesome. Excellent movie!
Love how the sequel went right into the original 👌
There’s a sequel?!?! And it’s good?!
There’s a sequel?!?!
Yes, they did an exceptional job of combining The Thing (2011) running time: 1:43:00 min into The Thing (1982) running time: 1:49:00 min. The Thing is actually a 3:32:00 min movie.
And it’s good?!
For me it was because when you watch them back to back they flow so well.
I didn't know that 2011 thing was not a remake. Definitely gonna check it out.
Went to go see it when it came out.
I was blown away because I thought we were getting a remake and when it basically rolls right into the Thing (1982) at the end, I was stunned and realized it was a prequel.
Sometimes going blind into a movie is the best way to watch them.
Nice, I’m going to have to check this out.
Ever seen James Carpenter’s “The Thing?” It’s one of my favorites movies.
