The Thing from Another World (1951)
What was the original THING that came before THE THING and also before the the prequel to THE THING?
It's 1951’s THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD, where the titular Thing is basically Carrot Frankenstein...and we fucking loved it. Really, it's worth watching.

Our intro song for Winter Hell is a mish mosh of soundtracks and dialogue clips that are pulled from horror films that take place in the frozen cold. Wendy Carlos and Rachel Elkind’s “Main Title” track for The Shining and Ennio Morricone’s composition for The Thing are the central themes you hear.
The outro music is the ominous end credits song from The Shining called “Midnight and the Stars are You” by Ray Noble and His Orchestra with vocals by Al Bowlly.
