This project has ended up being such a monster that I’ve been forced to break up my analysis of John Carpenter’s The Thing into 3 parts. In this first part, essentially Act One, we will answer who was the first team member assimilated, who was the next, and who sabotaged the blood bank.

Be on the look out for part 2!
