The Eleventh Doctor made reference to the "Carpenter, Kurt Russell Thing" when Amy Pond asked him if he'd ever seen The Thing, as they approached the deserted Arctic Geological Survey Base in Zebra Bay. He questioned if she meant Carpenter's film, or the "Howard Hawks Thing-y with the walking carrot". (GAME: Blood of the Cybermen)
