Video: Proof of Practical Creature Effects in THE THING (SPOILERS)

Check out this cool behind-the-scenes video that shows how some of the creatures were made in The Thing. ShockTilYouDrop posted this video from Amalgamated Dynamics, Inc. - the FX team responsible for the prequel.  Some fans did not like the over-use of CGI effects in the film. Well this video at least gives you proof that there was a practical  element of The Thing before the CGI was implemented.

The video contains spoilers so beware:

The Thing arrives on DVD and Blu-ray January 31.  Did you like this movie in theaters? Are you planning on watching it on Blu-ray?
