The Thing (film)

You may be looking for The Thing from Another World or The Thing from Outer Space.

The Thing was a film involving underground tunnels, in which, according to Bill Potts, "everybody dies". (TV: Empress of Mars) It was directed by a man named Carpenter, and starred Kurt Russell. (GAME: Blood of the Cybermen)

Bill thought the Twelfth Doctor would enjoy this film, and it came to mind when they explored underground tunnels on Mars. Though the Doctor in his twelfth incarnation seemed to have never heard of The Thing, (TV: Empress of Mars) the Eleventh Doctor referred to the film when Amy Pond asked him if he had seen The Thing, and he even questioned if she meant this one, or the "Howard Hawks Thing-y with the walking carrot". (GAME: Blood of the Cybermen)
