Classic

This movie still stands on its own merit, seen it at the theater at its initial release! It gave me the creeps the first time and it still does the trick decades later. When you couple this with the newer release of The Thing, which showed the story from the Norwegian's side, it makes a great double feature which is linked together.
John Carpenter rocked it!

One of the best horror movies ever made

John Carpenter's The Thing remains one of the best horror films to ever be released. A reimaging of The Thing from Another World, this picture forces a group of stranded individuals to question who, or what, their companions may be. Much like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Thing capitalizes on paranoia, given that the person sitting next to you, may, in fact, be an alien parasite that could tear you limb from limb. Even beyond the mere paranoia, the practical effects hold up better than almost everything since and are far better on screen than the computer-generated effects seen in the remake.

If you are looking for a tense, scary, gory, horror film, I can't recommend this movie enough for fans of the genre.

One of the greatest

An incredible and unique film! If you enjoy spectacular visual effects and a consistent, thrilling storyline then you will certainly be happy with “The Thing”. It’s has a little bit of everything you’d hope for in such a film and so, so much more. Read full review

John Carpenter Magnum Opus

Fantastic film with some breathtaking visual and cinematography. Also has some amazing use of practical effect with brilliant atmosphere. This is a film that is truly terrifying while still being beautiful shot.

The Thing: Best movies of All Time!

The Thing is the best movie to have for any horror movie fan, although this Blu-ray doesn't have much features it is perfect to see this movie in high-quality. I only hope there's a re-release with all the deleted scenes and behind-the-scenes extras for cheap in the future.Read full review
