At 23:00-24:00, the dog whines in anticipation and is seen growling after the 24:00 mark when Thing gets out of the ice. So if you skip past that, which you probably should because sensitive folks like me will know something happened to the dog, you’ll need to fill someone in as to what happened. A search party goes out after and from I’m told on here, there’s more after the 27:00 mark so I jumped to 30:00 entirely. I don’t care what I missed and I doubt it’s THAT important. The thing got out, got murderey, the people attacked it with fire. Good ‘nuff.

45:00 In that same moment the main female character is discussing that The Thing can replicate humans and trying to provide insight to the situation and she is brushed off as going insane.

Also throughout the movie they gaslight one another because The Thing is pretending to be one of them or multiple of them and does not want to be found.

There is alcohol use at the beginning during the party, but nobody abuses it and the whole party seems tame with the alcohol use.

Most of the movie centers around body horror. When The Thing shows itself in a human looking host the body will deform grotesquely in different ways.

It's not actually an amputation, but an arm does come off - it detaches itself from the body, being/becoming an independent creature.

No, but there is a falling scene: A vehicle (snowcat) with several people in it falls down into a crevasse, and only stops falling when it gets wedged between the sides because the crevasse tapers. The people survive, apparently unharmed.
