The Thing (2011) movie ending sets up the The Thing (1982). Thus, The Thing (2011) movie represents the prequel to the The Thing (1982) movie. Most horror movie fans will realize the movie ending to the newest movie is a prequel. The husky running away from the helicopter is a dead giveaway to the The Thing (1982) beginning.

***Plot Spoiler*** 

 Kate and Sam leave the spaceship. The two killed Dr. Halvorson, which in his Alien form attempted to fire up the spaceship. The spaceship explodes.

Sam starts the truck. Kate opens the door, looks at Sam, and then hesitates to enter the vehicle. She surveys Sam, realizing there is something not right about him. She tells Sam that he is not himself.

Kate watches Sam prior to driving out to the spaceship. He is actually human then. She realizes Sam is Alien because his loop earring is missing. The Thing is unable to imitate gold, metal and fillings. Sam denies that he is an Alien to trick Kate into entering the truck.

Kate apologizes to Sam. She aims the flame-throwing device at him. Kate cooks Sam like smoked salmon. The last remains of The Thing are supposedly gone. Kate leaves the imitation Sam burning into dust. She starts up another vehicle, and then drive off in the snow storm.

Back at camp during the morning, we see a helicopter land. A helicopter pilot searches the camp site, calling out for anyone to respond.

Lars frantically appears out of nowhere. We previously assume Lars is dead. Lars yells at the helicopter pilot to chase after the dog. He mentions the dog must not get away. The two enter the helicopter.

The famous The Thing music begins. We connect the movie ending to the beginning of The Thing (1982). The infected dog runs away carrying The Thing virus. The helicopter flies after the dog. Lars shoots at the dog, missing The Thing with each shot.

The Thing movie ends, giving way to the The Thing (1982) opening scene.
