Probably the best(with Escape from N.Y.)J.Carpenter's movie

Rating: 8/10 (6 October 2002)

This is one of my favourite S.F. movie. I like to be very precise with the genre because (for me)this is PURE S.F.. Not only for because it is tract by the Campbell's novel, but also for the cut that Carpenter give it. Few movie have its balance between terror and amazing for the unknow, between suspence and beautiful(and also mechanic)special effect! I think this is one of the best example of the Carpenter's talent, and I'm almost sure that he also think to the genius of H.P.Lovecraft for the structure of the storyboard. The end of the movie is very enigmatic and elegance (no good end), with obscure politically reference(like more of Carpenter's movie). Enjoy for all the S.F. fan who doesn't see it. Goodbye!
