Review of The Thing (1982) by Zachary M — 18 Sep 2016
Honestly, I know I'm going to get flack for this, but I really don't care for this film. I know it's considered a classic in terms of scifi, but something about this just never worked for me. Maybe it's the cast, Kurt Russell's character is the smuggest unlikable guy I've seen in a while. The creature was really greatly designed and pulled off, but not quite the iconic monster that it's sometimes considered.
The plot is a good 'who done it' with monsters instead of a murder which is nice, but it's kind of subpar when you think of it. All in all, some people would love it it, but I can utterly say it's not for me.
