Excellent horror...

Rating: 9/10 (28 April 2009)

This movie scared the heck out of me when I first saw it. Even watching it a 2nd, 3rd and 4th time years later still gave me chills now and then.
I recently watched it a 5th time (I am 25 years old now) and I have to admit that it still hasn't lost it's magic.
The movie plays tricks on you, in multiple ways. You don't get most details on the first viewing, but believe me, this movie gets better every time you see it.
So what's the story? A group of scientists in the Antarctic stumble upon an abandoned excavation site. Something was dug up, but whatever it was, it's gone now. The only survivor they find is a dog, who was previously hunted down for no apparent reason.
They take the dog back to their base and from there, the movie really starts...
Things happen you don't expect. Things happen you wish you didn't see.
I won't go into detail, but let me warn you by saying that this movie was (and maybe still is) considered one of the scariest movies of it's time.
Acting, story, music, effects: all excellent.
Highly recommended for any science fiction / horror fan.
