The Thing

What's your opinion of the movie "The Thing"
John Carpenters version ofc

It's shit.

Amazing collative movie. Is supposed to be a psychological sci-fi horror, is genuinely a story boarded master piece of cinema however because Carpenter spent so much time planning it and the attention to detail is still incredible.

It's a mystery movie with an incredible replay value. I still love rewatching the movie whenever i'm able to catch it airing.

Good movie but one of the most insufferable group of fans to ever surround it.

Kurt Russ is incredibly handsome and I like him as an actor. I even like him as snake foreskin.

Also
>Le practical effects
Meme has merit, and the general atmosphere of isolation and paranoia is comfy.

It's really enjoyable, although worth mentioning I'm also a Kurt Russell fag. Story is good, very Carpenter-typical location choices, effects also hold up shockingly well.

i just realized the creature was a metaphor for how (you know who) spreads through civilizations and ruins them by taking over

(YOU KNOW WHO), you goys

You mean (((())))?

Best horror movie on ALOT of levels.

Every thing holds up.

The music?
The characters?
The monster?
The setting?
The effects on everything?
The mystery?

It's quintessentially the BEST creature feature possible. The only 'bad' thing is a couple of things that create double fuck ups like Childs supposedly not breathing in the final scene when he clearly does but Carpenter stating it's obvious he was the Thing because of the clothing change and the breathing.

Only the best movie ever made
