First up we have British animator Lee Hardcastle’s mashup of charming Swiss, Children’s stop motion series “Pingu” and the 1982, American, supernatural horror classic “The Thing”: “Thingu” (https://youtu.be/QAoONl2P8fw?si=uvi9PlNN9aY5AyN-). John Carpenter (director of 1982’s “The Thing”) is a noted fan of this reimagining.

A superb song sequel, so slick and tight,
maestro Lee Hardcastle’s claymation – it’s pure delight! 💾🕹️🔥
