0:52 Jed had incredible focus. He hits all his marks, didn't get distracted, didn't wag his tail, didn't look at the camera at all. A good boy and a good actor. :)
I can’t find the commentary now but apparently they shot the hallway scene in one take. Jed was really great at acting subtly “wrong”, not quite like the way you think a dog should act. The way he glances into the first room he passes and then pausing before entering the second, closing his mouth & changing his expression just a bit to look a touch more menacing without using any aggression indicators of a dog. There’s human actors who can’t pull off that level of subtly. Great dog.
As an owner of a primitive breed, that's part of it! Since Jed is a wolfdog, he has a level of Intelligence higher than most modern breeds have. A lot of the "off" movements are just from him having a more calmer, deliberate way he goes about things. People tend to not be used to that kind of behaviour in dogs, since "Primitive" breeds like the Malamute (which jed was mixed with) tend to have more of an emotional/mental "presence". My dog actually acts a lot like this, it almost makes you think they act more human than not sometimes.
Fun fact, the dog in question who they cast was part wolf, which is why the dog looks slightly off. Other dogs that auditioned were too smiley looking, which wasn't an issue with the wolf dog.
1:25 This might be my favorite shot of the whole movie, and it's so simple. The thing staring completely stone cold out at the helicopter. It's literally assessing the situation, and it looks so... frozen. It's really extremely well done how they cut between this and the helicopter a few times. In my opinion one of the most terrifying parts of the movie just seeing how unnatural it acts. Look at how the desk lamp is shaking but the dog is completely still
Jed was a wolf Malamute rescue. In addition to “The Thing,” he was in several Disney movies. The “White Fang” movies, “Journey of Nattie Gann,” and others.
The scariest thing about the Thing for me is how it never breaks character, even when no one is watching. It's fully committed to being just a normal dog, even when it's completely alone.
It breaks my heart when Clark hears Childs say that Blair killed the rest of the dogs, and books it back to the kennels. Especially seeing him absolutely quaking with grief when he finds their bodies. I understand his mindset, dogs are such pure, unconditionally loving creatures by nature and that's why Clark cared about them more than about other people.
Rest in peace Jed the wolf dog 1977 to 1995 thank you so much for doing a wonderful performance as The Thing (1982) you will forever be remembered as a legendary dog actor as well amen.
Fun fact: The dog, Jed, is actually a wolfdog! He was very well behaved and observant, and his undoglike demeanor was perfect to showcase the uncanniness of the Thing. Reportedly, Jed also creeped out the crew at times, lol. Rest in peace, Jed.
I love how The Thing is actually unnerving even for dogs. He just came, sat, and looked. The dogs are not especially alerted as the Thing, even by smell, is at the time 100% a dog. But they feel something is off, and they start looking at it. It perfectly knows what it's doing. And the fact that this fuckery can build and drive interstellar ships is making them even more terrifying.
Honestly... one of the creepiest parts of this movie. It's truly like the dog has an intelligent alien thing inside of it. I loved the parts with this dog.
Honestly, I get the impression it was actually planning to eat the cast, or at least considering the possibility. It's behaving like a predator rather than a pet. Just stalking around, making as little noise as possible, watching and waiting...
Trivia: The dog was already a thing at the end of the 2011 prequel, but at the start of the original, the crew of Outpost 31 were not aware, as they did not understand Norwegian, so they adopted the dog, leading to the repetition of the Thule event in the original.
Excellent direction by John also, Jed the Dog was a really great actor here so damn creepy and unsettling. It’s like the creature knew MacReady was a threat and was seriously deciding if it was worth it to reveal itself
The menace is very human-like, which coming from a dog is honesty terrifying. And it was completely done through acting by the dog, no makeup or special effects. Amazing animal.
The dog (Jed) did an amazing job coming off like an alien. It's peak subtle animal acting that really sells that there is something off about that dog. Watching the movie and knowing that this is no dog but a plotting alien creature makes it terrifying seeing how it stalks them, studies their behaviour and acts stealthily thinking about when to strike. The moment you pinpoint also came off as absolutely creepy to me. The dog looking at MacReady and them having no idea that what they are looking at is absolutely no dog and the dog looking back at MacReady plotting against them and thinking of whether they know it is no dog or not is just unsettling as all hell. What makes it even more terrifying is that the dog alien is absolutely motionless....it just stands there with those yellow eyes staring back at MacReady. It wouldve spooked me the hell out if I was him. I have absolutely never ever seen a dog in a movie act its part so well.
For me it's 1:25 but you're totally right this is also terrifying part of what I love about 1:25 is how the desk lamp is shaking but the wolf is completely still, that's a super smart decision by the director
It's terrifying....If you know that this isn't a dog but an alien that is actually plotting not to get spotted but to stay hidden and silently infect and take over each and every one in that room ...it's the stuff of nightmares. They are looking at the dog, but it's not a dog staring back but an alien lifeform from god knows where...it's scary beyond belief.
You can tell that the creature is more intelligent and calculating due to the events of the Prequel. That’s at least one thing I loved the prequel did it gave more context to the creature
I don't think the dog bit him. Bennings was probably shocked the dog went past his legs under the table. It happens in some food outlets that include seats outside and pet animals tend to walk in between people's legs randomly or attention for food.
I bet if they’d hadn’t have done any blood tests, maybe the alien would’ve been able to be negotiated with when in human form. It could’ve just be being instinctual and scared of people.
I'm watching Now and I desperate was looking this scene to comment. Oh my god! The dog watching they bringing The dead creature from The other camp. It's watching The helicopter and The transfer as If It knows that by bringing that, It's might get in trouble! Did you notice this?!

Based on what we know about huskies now, they should’ve known something was wrong when it was just being quiet.
Well now you've got me doubting my calm and quiet husky...
@@michaelbeacon123 😂
Jed was not a husky. He was a malamute wolf hybrid.
The way it just sits there, staring without moving an inch is so creepy
He's an alaskan malamute, not a siberian husky.

Com'on man... the dog doesn't even know what's going on and is just moving around to wherever the trainer signals it to go.

best dog actor ever, especially how he’s at first gonna walk through the door but hears people in the other room so changes course
Jed was one of a kind.
The scariest thing about the Thing for me is how it never breaks character, even when no one is watching. It's fully committed to being just a normal dog, even when it's completely alone.
Watching humans very intently, not barking, eeriely quiet and behave with little human interactions, and a husky?
Yea very dog like... Not
1:25 If anybody was in the room right then it'd be pretty obvious there's something wrong with the dog.
"it's"

They would have froze to death anyway. It was not a good scene for any mammals.

Has to be the best animal actor of all time
That last scene was pretty sad you could tell how much Clark loved those dogs

My favorite dog actor
1:37 For some reason I find this to be the creepiest image of the whole movie.
Excellent direction by John also, Jed the Dog was a really great actor here so damn creepy and unsettling. It’s like the creature knew MacReady was a threat and was seriously deciding if it was worth it to reveal itself
Absolutely. The dog is stalking them.

This is true uncanny valley, You can tell there's something not right about it before it reveals itself.
Such a beautiful creature. He’s a good boy!
If Jed was still alive he be a really good Live Action version of Balto.
0:52 the way it peeks out
Even after almost 10 years since first seeing it it still bothers me lol
Same dog from White Fang (1991) starring Ethan Hawke.
1:37 that stare....
Terrifying.
Same look my dog gives me when I'm late with his dinner
It's terrifying....If you know that this isn't a dog but an alien that is actually plotting not to get spotted but to stay hidden and silently infect and take over each and every one in that room ...it's the stuff of nightmares. They are looking at the dog, but it's not a dog staring back but an alien lifeform from god knows where...it's scary beyond belief.
There's a missing scene in this movie of all the huskies yelling at the alien dog that they are acting too wierd and to cut it out.
Best actor in the whole movie 😅
Beware of Dog- directed by John Carpenter.
Jed (the dog) was also White Fang.
i knew i recognized the pup somewhere
It's literally 12:16 and I can't sleep because I saw this😭
Relatable little fella
Amazing transformation
You can tell that the creature is more intelligent and calculating due to the events of the Prequel. That’s at least one thing I loved the prequel did it gave more context to the creature
I'm just more happy that you have a dreamcast pfp
It's still thinking...
Even if I don't like that they sold it as both a prequel and remake I do agree.
Gorefield? now this is my Best Horror in the world.
Very well trained for movie
1:54 me at the social gathering
2:42 me when I get angry
Best actor
1:43
Fun fact: Peter Maloney was bitten by the dog he’s was a kid and no one like Jed The Dog
I don't think the dog bit him. Bennings was probably shocked the dog went past his legs under the table. It happens in some food outlets that include seats outside and pet animals tend to walk in between people's legs randomly or attention for food.
That's not true. I remember reading that Jed acted all of his parts eerily well and was extremely quiet and well behaved on the set.
The second half of this sentence is nonsensical.
Easily the creepiest part 0:31
Alaskan Malamute!
Fuckin A Bubba! That’s what I keep saying on Thing shows.
I bet if they’d hadn’t have done any blood tests, maybe the alien would’ve been able to be negotiated with when in human form. It could’ve just be being instinctual and scared of people.
This is Horrorific

odd why would palmers give Childs his joint
Not a cig, they’re sharing a joint
They didnt understand the danger of transfered cells between each other at the time
its a HUMAN inside that dog costume.
What breed is this?
half malamute half wolf
Funny thing
In the beginng all dogs were locked in cage with the alien
And in the same thing happened with people in the end.
Should be bennings be a thing since he got “bit” by wolf thing
