Keith David

Film DeathsEdit

The Thing (1982) [Childs]: Possibly freezes to death (off screen); the film ends with David and Kurt Russell waiting in the snow and Russell's last line implicates that their fate is ambiguous. However, it's also possible that Keith is actually the alien in disguise, indicating that the real character was fatally assimilated some time beforehand. The Thing (2002) PC game confirms he did freeze to death as the main character finds his frozen body near the beginning.
