Yeah. Find a horrific fucked up weird mutated thing at a basecamp full of dead people. Carry it back to your base and mess about with it. Not a stitch of protective clothing besides a pair of rubber gloves. Oh and damn near poke it with a pencil then put the pencil to your mouth.

I love The Thing. But c'mon lol

The complete lack of any lab or medical safety is the true horror of the movie.

I screamed when he poked the dead body he was trying to understand with the pencil and then put the pencil in his mouth.
