Isaacs Picture Conclusions

THE THINGY (2013) aka THE MIRACLE OF LIFE aka The Thingy: Confessions of a Teenage Placenta

thingy2Let’s just start by saying that, aside from having the greatest title (U.S.) I’ve ever seen – The Thingy is a miserable Belgian movie that is absolutely NOT fun at all and if I had that bazooka I’ve wanted for years to use on stupid automobile drivers, I would bazooka this fucking thing off of the face of the Earth and not think twice about it. That being said, this is probably some asshole’s favorite movie due to its art-house fucking rendering of the in justices of being bullied for being different and all of that stupid shit. This thing irritated me to no end from start to finish and if I could commit manslaughter on a movie, this would be my first choice. Spoilers follow if you’re considering this rotten piece of shit.

thingy4A man plays a female body builder. She has a baby in the gym and tosses it out but keeps the placenta. The placenta gets baptized, is named Luke, grows and eyeball and she eats the baby. As if things were going bad enough, then the thing started to talk.thingy3I don’t know if I can do this trait the injustice it deserves but, imagine if you could make yourself stupid. Half close your eyes, set your mouth open and kind of slur some words in the meekest, most feeble voice you can. And then talk a lot. I tried to make a graphic representing the sound of its voice but you probably won’t be able to see it much unless you’re on a larger device like a tablet or laptop but here goes:

thingy9So the fucking things grows and goes to school and gets bullied and goes to a movie and slithers around leaving a trail of blood behind him. It evens wears a fucking watch.

thingy6It even goes on a fucking date and smoke a cigarette.

thingy5Eventually his mom ODs on steroids so it goes crazy and murders a bunch of babies in a hospital nursery before his priest eats him for dinner. THE END.

thingy7That’s enough for this fucking movie. That picture above didn’t happen in this movie but I thought it would be nice after those other images. Neither did the one below but I wanted to provide something for the ladies. You can’t go wrong with Gary Cooper, right??

thingy8RIGHT??

Gary Cooper would be so proud to be associated with this movie.

    Grr, I just wrote a post but got booted out and had to reset my password – comment gone! Anyway, it was basically ‘this sounds terrible blah blah where do you find them etc, looks abysmal and not even good bad, just horrible’ etc.

    I’ve missed you!

    This sounds shit. Seriously, wow. Don’t you feel the world has become obsessed with placenta? It’s grossing me out!

    I ALSO want a Bazooka for my car. And one of those loudspeakers that will enable me to tell people exactly what I think of them for turning on their hazards and stopping anywhere (it’s a favourite pastime for South-African drivers)

    Love,

    Hi there, I appeared in The Thingy (2013) aka The Miracle of Life aka The Thingy: confessions of a teenage placenta and just to let you know we all had a great time and a good laugh shooting those birth scenes of Luke in the gym.

    I’m thoroughly delighted that you hated the film so much that you felt the need to write this miserable little review.

    Between you and me, reading through what you wrote made laugh so hard that my ribs ended up aching!

    Good luck with getting that bazooka, although I feel a water pistol might a bit too complicated for you to handle. *winks*

    Kind Regards.

        Oh, I certainly wouldn’t dream of ever wanting an apology, if anything I’m overjoyed and love the fact that you hated The Thingy (2013) aka The Miracle of Life aka The Thingy: confessions of a teenage placenta so much that it’s your first choice trigger for throwing a wobbler and going out on a murderous rampage with a bazooka.

        Funnily enough I feel exactly the same way towards Harry Potter films. 😉

        It’s been a pleasure taking the time out of my extremely busy schedule to leave you these comments.

        Kind Regards.
