Who Goes There?: The Novella That Formed the Basis of the Thing by John W. Campbell Jr.
3.0
A decent enough short story but I felt like it focused a bit too much on the science side for my personal taste to the point where I didn't really feel the mood of the isolation and most of the dialogue had that really awkward quality where it's clearly just there for the exposition and not how any group of people would actually talk to each other in my opinion. Definitely worth your time if you're a fan of isolation horror just to see a really early forerunner in the genre but honestly one of the few times I would say the movie is better.
