The short story from The Thing's perspective is pretty good too.

I read that last time I was commenting on a thing thread maybe a year ago and someone linked to it, I did like it.

Whoever wrote it had to have read the original story because they both spend much more time exploring the inner world of the thing and it's nature than the movie do, this fan fiction entirely so.

That's also a solid read, nice link.
