The Thing from The Thing's perspective
by The Wizard on Jan.13, 2010, under About Filmmaking, About Writing, Film, Writing
Is John Carpenter's The Thing the best horror film ever made? Well, don't let me ruin the rest of your life for you, but the answer is, "Yes."
Is it, then, any surprise that the best horror film ever has inspired the best piece of fan-fiction ever? One with perhaps the greatest ending line I've read in ages? No, no it is not.
If you've never seen The Thing, go. Do so. I'll wait.
Ok. Wasn't that good? I know. So awesome.
Now, read "The Things" by Peter Watts. It's long, but worth it.
Go. I'll wait.
