Review of The Thing (1982) by Matthew G — 22 Nov 2012
John Carpenter's version of The Thing is a dark, brooding film, and in some cases it was an effective thriller. The movie had some quotable lines, Kurt Russell was awesome, and it was so full of tension and suspense.
The special effects for the "thing" looks a little dated today, but I feel that back then it was must've been a real something to behold. I personally felt it was a fun movie, though I don't think it's as good as Alien.
