Well,it would explain how he can fly faster than light, he reverse – engineered the crashed saucer and in a fit of whimsy, made it look like a Laplander sleigh and reindeer.
I have McCreedy’s action figure in the shelf under our TV. My grand daughter’s friend pointed at him one day and asked “Why do you have a BUFF JESUS on display?”
I’ve watched The Thing dozens of times, and I can’t recall a single thing that indicates anything to do with Christmas. Is there snow, sure. But where the story is set, there’s ALWAYS SNOW.
Tragic to see an infected Rudolph being shot at from helicopter in the opening scene …. there was a reason for the glowing nose. Now we know the truth 😐
The Thing was so out of there at the time and never thought of as a Christmas Movie unless of ‘cause what your really trying to say is Father Christmas is a human eating alien from thousands of years ago who just happened to end up at the North Pole.
However, from a personal perspective I have a lot more happy memories associated with seeing The Thing 😁🎅🏻
I prefer the original. Yes, the walking plant is ridiculous. But it’s such a charming old film, I find I can forgive a lot from that period. Besides, I’ve no stomach for the gore of the – admittedly brilliant – remake.
Santa before he bacame Claus
Gonna tell my kids this and put it on tonight
Hateful 8 is the Ist in the trilogy.
I consider any movie that even mentions the holiday a Christmas movie.
Both The Thing movies are great.
Works for me
I thought that was snake plaskit
How so if he doesn’t survive it?
Are… are you motioning to make “The Thing” a CHRISTMAS MOVIE!?!?!?
poles apart – literally 🙂
Santa’s workshop could have started in the south pole but then they relocated

Now Kurt will forever be known as BUFF JESUS!
I watched this movie, I liked it
It’s Snake Plisken, I heard he was dead.
Christmas chronicles needs a third movie

‘where the hell are we going? ‘… ‘to my workshop’… ‘what the hell for? `… `coz when i left yesterday i turned the fairy lights off’
Let’s see, somewhere near the poles, they dug up something dangerous? Sounds not only like “The Thing” but https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1401143/

Can we put Santa back into action?
The only original Christmas origin story is ‘klaus’ I refuse believing anything else 🙂
Yeah and there are penguins at the North Pole
I want to see a Christmas chronicles / the thing crossover now more than ever
Loads of elves as things and Santa has to fight them off with toys and brave the cold
Yeah sign me up
‘people shocked’ they only found out Kurt had a horrific backstory. News in the links
Watched it a few days ago
I’d like to watch the David Harbour in Violent Night origin story too. The Santa
Thought that was Mick Foley 😄
In the Southern Hemisphere, it is spring and summer in December.
Im glad he made it out of that frozen hell hole alive after killing the alien. Thats what turned his beard white i bet.
The greatest movie ever
He also had a megahit with Dolly Parton about islands……..
The thing takes place during, “The first goddamn week of winter”. Not Christmas, I wish it was a Christmas movie though!
So Santa is the alien.

Watched The Christmas Chronicles tonight. Snake Plissken as Santa – Escape From Chicago.
The Thing turned into 8 reindeer and Kurt Russell controls them

Is where you can see a Mac and a Windows working together
Right. Somebody with epic editing skills needs to replace Thing Kurt with Santa Kurt.
I, might not have that much hair .
But I, had that much beard .
Miss my Santa beard .
He literally has the best hair ever.
