One of the greatest horror / sci-fi films ever made!

Rating: Null/10 (21 March 2004)

John Carpenter out did himself with this film, and I really don't think that he will ever be able to top this scary little film from 1982. Essentially a remake, stunning special effects, and a great storyline make for a terrifying ride into the unknown.
At a remote research lab in Antartica, a team of American explorers come in contact with some sort of thing. Problem is, the thing can take the shape of anything it kills. Now...miles away from civilization, they need to destroy it. The problem is, who is human, and who is now the thing?
Truly scary movie. The plot and the extraordinary, and sometimes disgusting special effects, bring this movie way above many others. Definately worth your time. I highly recommend this film. But....if you're squeamish and scare easily...don't watch it alone!
