In a cast of 15, there's not one female character in the film (even the 1951 original had female characters). The only female presence in the film is the voice of MacReady's chess computer (and the contestants seen on the game show Palmer watches). A scene containing a female blow-up doll was filmed, then left on the cutting room floor. According to John Carpenter, originally one crew member was female, but she was pregnant, and it forced her to leave the production; she was replaced by a male. In contrast, the film's prequel La cosa (2011) has a female main character.
