How smart are they? The things, I mean

Whenever caught, it just stands there and screams while transforming, sometimes not even attacking. It's very panicky and dumb once identified.
To be fair, even the smartest humans can panic and act very dumb when their survival is at stake.
So many stories, so little time. -

It seems to be at its most vulnerable when it's in the middle of replicating. The scene with the dogs was similar. It didn't do much other than howl, and by the time it even tried to escape, it was too late. It got torched again.
I also don't think it can kill humans that easily. It had Windows by the head, and it still took a while for him to die.

Windows still wasn't dead. He was screaming and flailing and trying to fight back. It wasn't an easy kill.
Funnily enough, Windows at first was frozen in panic. Just like the Thing was as Bennings. It happens. Even to aliens.
And yes, 3 dogs. If it struggle for 6 minutes to kill 3 dogs, it'd take it even longer to kill 7 humans.
Not tougher than a human?
Let's not change the subject here. No one said that.
So many stories, so little time.
