The movie is called Zombeavers! Right now, you know you’re either in or out. If the highlight of your summer is going to be the premiere of Sharknado 3… then hitch up, jump on Netflix, grab some mind-altering substances (legal ones), and prepare to rock out with the Zombeavers. And yes, they are zombie beavers, in case you didn’t get it.

“I’m the Thing….from another world, baby.”

Jon and Al Kaplan, the singing and songwriting brothers who brought The Silence of the Lambs to the Off-Broadway stage in the form of Silence! The Musical, have struck gold once again.

The brothers have been blitzing the Internet in recent months with a series of viral video musical adaptations, taking on Conan the Barbarian and Fright Night (released to coincide with the release of the 3D remakes of both). And with the prequel to the 1982 version of The Thing due in theaters this weekend the Kaplan brothers have gone back to the John Carpenter-directed classic take on John W. Campbell‘s short story “Who Goes There?” and worked their musical magic. You can watch the video below after the jump.
