The Thing
John Carpenter
1982
A delightful romp through the snowy tundra of Antarctica! A group of scientists and researchers come together to play a fun game of "who's the alien" while battling a shape-shifting monster. What could go wrong? It's just a silly little movie about teamwork and trust, with absolutely no terrifying and disturbing scenes whatsoever.

Antarctica trust
Alien in ice thawed out
Run test on the blood
Camaraderie
Trust in the frozen tundra
Where draws one the line
A frozen wasteland
Men unsure of each other
Does the thing remain?
Underneath the ice
The unimaginable
Unity unbound
But what is the thing?
Is a metaphor or worse
Is maybe just us
Blistering blunder
Are you certain who is who
No, lets burn it all

Burn it all to the ground.

Humans are one thing but let’s leave the doggies out of it.

A cutting metaphor for the paranoia of the Cold War, as well as the AIDS epidemic.
