    "The Thing" on the TV is the original version (from 1951)... the one WE want you to see is the 1982 "John Carpenter's The Thing", with Kurt Russell.

    Window left open, doors unlocked, etc. That was the way things were in small towns in the 1960's and 70's. People knew everyone else in the town. Crime was low. People trusted each other. And there wasn't 24 hour a day constant news available. No internet. That is the world that this film was set in.
    It should also be pointed out that the characters in these types of movies do not know that they are in a horror movie. For them, the normal rules of life still apply. For example, when you stab someone in the neck with a knitting needle, you don't expect that person to get back up again. Likewise, when you stab a person in the eye with a wire hanger, then stab him in the gut with the knife, in real life that person is not getting back up again. Only in horror movies does that person get up after those injuries. That is why Laurie keeps dropping the knife.

      I grew up in the 70’s & 80’s & we almost never locked our house. My dad would lock them at night, right before bed, but other than that, they were always open. We didn’t even lock them when we all left for work & school. I’d come home from school & walk right in. My parents wouldn’t be home for 2-3 hours, but I never locked the doors then either. We simply didn’t think about those kinds of things, since they basically never occurred. That’s why a movie, that people nowadays think is pretty tame, scared the living crap out of us🤣

    The kids in this movie were watching the original black and white ‘The Thing.’
    But John Carpenter (who directed Halloween) remade ‘The Thing’ in the 1980s - that’s the one people react to. It’s considered a masterpiece.
    I hope you react to Alfred Hitchcock’s ‘Psycho.’
    Also, please react to the Indiana Jones Trilogy 😃
    The channel will really grow if you also react to the 6 Star Wars movies - because there are so many Star Wars fans. It will raise your visibility on TH-cam and get TH-cam to suggest your videos more often.
    Other movies I hope you react to:
    Bladerunner (the first movie is a little slow, but if you expect it to be, then it’s not so bad).
    Bladerunner 2049
    Passengers (2016)
    Star Man
    The Truman Show
    Artificial Intelligence
    Casablanca
    Allied
    Enemy at the Gates
    Minority Report
    Thanks! I really like your reactions 😃👍🏻

    "I don't understand that reasoning." The reasoning being that the people in that quiet, peaceful little town would so paranoid, they'd be bogging down the emergency lines with false positive sightings, making it a lot tougher for the sheriff's department to do its job.

    You pretty much hit the nail on the head when you mentioned this movie was the blueprint for many movies after this one. 'Halloween' created a phenom for director John Carpenter. With only a little over $300,000 in budget, this independent film grossed over $70 million at the box office. The movie was originally named 'The Babysitter Murders' but distribution influenced Carpenter to change the name to 'Halloween' since the murders all happened on Halloween night. It was a no brainer for Carpenter to change the movie title. Halloween influenced many other movie titles using dates, holidays and other things that stood out and using a 'boogeyman or villain'. Movies such as My Bloody Valentine, April Fools Day, Silent Night/Deadly Night, Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street. All those movies and others have 'Halloween' and John Carpenter to thank.
    Producer Debra Hill who was dating Carpenter at the time played a huge role in the movie. Her hand could be seen in the beginning of the movie reaching for the knife in the kitchen. And @ 12:40 she is seen again looking toward the house when Tommy sees her through the window.
    Hill shared a cool fun fact about the mask. They were down to three to choose, I forgot what the first one was but it was down to a killer clown mask and the mask that was used in the movie. Staff were all in one room to decided which to choose. When the actor walked in with the first mask, they were like 'Ok', when he'd walked in with the killer clown mask they were 'ok, this looks scary'. But when he walked in with the final mask used in this movie, Hill recalled there was silence and a chill feeling in the room. THAT WAS IT. And the rest is history. The mask was an old Star Trek Captain Kirk mask, the eyes were cut more open and the face was spray painted white.
    If youre planning on watching Halloween II (1981) you will find out why Michael Myers is going after Laurie

      @@angelomaurizio1668 No one talks about it? That's not true. We can talk about it. Maybe no one talks about it who's obsessed with Halloween doesn't want to hear about it for a reason. Maybe because Bob Clark is the one to thank. Maybe because it was an Underground Canadian flick, or American distributors decided to call it Silent Night, Evil Night in America, maybe you don't talk about it, and just because you obsess over Halloween, the most inconsistent and pretentious of all the major franchises, maybe just means you talk too much about Halloween.

      Halloween wouldn't exist without Black Christmas, of which it is a direct Clone, where they actually portray Strong Female Leads, which I know is very unpopular these days 😂 Today Women need to be weak, like Laurie Strode Halloween 2 weak! 😂 Jess is a Feminist Icon, Laurie's a sad ass nepo baby.

      @@Nicolas.Vincent Thanks for proving my point. 😃 From '74 to '77 were there any other pictures such as Black Christmas? I get Black Christmas influenced Carpenter to write Halloween but so did Psycho and that came out 17 years earlier. (1960) My point is you had all these holiday - date movies all of sudden come out after 1978 AFTER the success from the first Halloween.

      That wasn’t the original intention. That was the result of John Carpenter drinking a six-pack and being forced to write H2.
      The original he had no motivation: it was a home invasion movie with a supernatural mental patient wearing a Halloween mask. That’s terrifying.

    As other people have already said in the comments that was the 1951 original and the part that you saw with the ufo is from another movie called Forbidden Planet (1956) which is also really good' it couldn't hurt to watch the original The Thing first before moving on to the 1982 remake, but that is your call to make.
    As for the Halloween sequel title' it is indeed called Halloween 2 (1981), I wonder what the next horror movie will be for next week?

    The movie the kids where watching in this movie. Was actually the original The Thing from another World. John Carpenter would not make his version of The Thing until some years later. Also John Carpenter's version is not a remake of The Thing from another World.
    Because it all goes back to a book or story called Who Goes There. The movie The Thing from another World key word lossy based on that story. Meaning it's story plot was changed from the original story. But John Carpenter went back to the original story Who Goes There an tried to stay as true to it as possible.

    Just so you know…. The Halloween series has 4 different storylines.
    1. H1 and H2
    2. H1, H2, H4, H5, H6
    3. H1, H2, H H20, H Resurrection
    4. H1, H 2018, H Kills, H Ends
    The Halloween series originally meant to be a anthology which is why Halloween 3 is a different story. But when H3 was released they realized people wanted more Michael Myers.
    Also it’s 2 complete remakes by a director named Rob Zombie who came out with H 2007 and H2 2009.

Every one who makes movie reaction videos because I know not everyone is ready. For hard core Unrated movies like those movies.
      So I wondering why people like you do see people that made movie reaction videos. Then go you need to watch the Terrifier movies because it makes no sense to me.
      I mean unless I seen them make a reaction video. To a movie that's similarly violent and bloody and gory. I don't recommend those movies because they may not. Being ready for hard core horror movies. So why do people like you recommend them to people who never seen. A hard core horror movie before?
