Bon from The Walten Files is polyamorous!
The Chitauri that invaded Manhattan were not really Chitauri at all–they were biomechanical constructs created by the Chitauri, based upon one of the few singular beings to ever defy the Chitauri and live, an alien warrior who volunteered to have his mind transferred into a similar body (although far more advanced) to protect his homeworld.
In our tongue, that warrior’s name translates to Beta Ray Bill.

Hello everyone! Time for my first review!
Last night I was fortunate to sit down and watch one of the so called greatest Sci-Fi movies of all time, The Thing From Another World!
However, I'm gonna give a bit of context of how I came to this film.
You guys probably don't know this, but I'm a huge fan of the legendary filmmaker John Carpenter. I loved most of his movies, especially Halloween (Which I might review it, the remake, and the upcoming film.) One of his better films is The Thing, which is a great movie and you should go see it. Hell, I even liked the 2011 Prequel to it. So, the original 1951 film has been on my Watchlist for a while. So, when I saw it was available On Demand, I had to watch it! So, I did! And what did I think?
I kinda liked it but it is not as good as the 80s remake.
So, firstly, what is this film about? Some Men from the Air Force arrive to a base at the North Pole when a unidentifiable ship is there. One thing leads to another and the creature is loose!! What will become of our men? Watch and find out! After this review of course.
As far as story goes, it's the standard fare for 50s Sci-Fi movies, And it isn't exactly that accurate to the original short story "Who Goes There?" Especially with The Thing...Not being able to impersonate others as well, but instead multiplying. The acting is also standard for the time. The Hayes Film Code was in effect as well, which leads to some...odd quotes. ("Holy Cats!") However, I will say that it doesn't affect the viewing experience!
Probably the biggest problem, for me, is the...shall I say...interesting Pseudoscience. Like claiming that Vegetables can have consciousness and the Infamous "Super Carrot" analogy. Outside of that, the film is pretty fine, which an amazing line in the last scene
The Thing From Another World is a perfectly okay 50s Sci-fi film. It's an entertaining watch that is very easy to enjoy. But if you could only see one Thing film, I'd go with John Carpenter's movie.
The Thing From Another World gets a 7.5/10
Now if you excuse me, this Moth's gotta go see another movie for the next review.
Y'all want a hint? Alright. I have this exact street in my home town, but I'm sure no one has died in their sleep here...yet.

Hey guys, my friend is in a financially tight position and so they opened up comissions. If you can go and support them, that'd be awesome! If not, can you help spread the word?
