if you think the thing was anyone BUT Childs, you need to rewatch the movie. the ending scene very obviously shows that Childs was the thing.. they made a pact to not drink anything anyone offered, Childs drank from what MacReady offered him.. along with many other obvious clues that gave it away at the end

By the way it’s 100% canon that Macready somehow SURVIVES. He makes an appearance at the end of the Thing Game, which is a direct sequel

Childs is definitely the thing in this scene you can tell by his breath. There’s no moisture coming out unlike MacReady.

Carpenter confirmed that one of them was the Thing, so it was probably Childs.

the film is an allegory for the inane paranoia spurred by the cold war so it makes total sense that they would both be human! its also awesome because it causes audiences to speculate heavily about who the thing is which echoes the same idea

There is no theory, they are both human. Confirmed decades ago.

Not 100% but pretty sure the director said one of them is the thing

What? No. The Thing's goal was not to make people paranoid and get them to turn against each other. It's a crash landed alien trying to survive.

I think in the book though The Thing wasn’t necessarily malicious. It sees the assimilation as a benevolent process of preservation. It believes the assimilation allows the organism to live on forever in the collective hive mind. So in its eyes it didn’t win if they are both human.

Es increíble que a 44 años la película sigue haciendo a la gente debatir sobre el final. En verdad una de las mejores películas de la historia.

Fun fact: a game based on The Thing released for PS2 confirms that neither of them was The Thing.

The thing doesn’t care if they’re paranoid, that’s the last thing it cares about. It just wants to survive and freeze, so it can be rediscovered and take over the world by spreading across the planet.

he purposely wrote the ending without choosing or making a decision so people saying it's this it's that are just wrong

Your Father :
So Y'all do realize we already got an answer right ? Carpenter got sick and tired of people asking him about the movie so he said the Video game adaptation got it right ,In that game Neither Childs or Mcready was that thing. Though this was just him saying it to get people to leave him alone so whether or not you want to put any validity in it I'll leave up to yall

it’s Childs, he changes coats from dark navy to a tan coat, you can’t see his breath like MacReady

All options are good, but I do like the idea of them both being human. John Carpenter made such a good movie
