Synopsis:
It strikes without warning... it could be anyone... even YOU! After a strange creature is unearthed from a US outpost, strange things start to happen to the crew, leaving no one to trust, and an alien hiding among them, ready to strike without warning. Will they survive, or will the THING tear the crew apart? So grab your flamethrowers, and your popcorn, as you experience the awful truth: Man is the warmest place to hide... not only that, but there is also another version in the "spectacular" 3RD DIMENSION. See the horrors leap from the screen, if you DARE!!!

Intentions:
This edit sets out to make a somewhat new experience for the 1982 body horror classic. With 50's style opening credits, an abrupt "The End?", as well as some audio tweaks to make it sound like a film of the era.

Additional Notes:
This is not connected to TheScribblingMan's The Thing From 1951. This, in fact, predates that edit, however, he's done an amazing job emulating the 50s style, and I respect the hell out of him for taking that 50s style much farther than I could have done.
