A Masterclass in Every Way

Rating: 10/10 (27 March 2020)

This movie, is the perfect horror movie. It creates this sense of dread right at the beginning, it pulls you into this group of guys who are just getting to know eachother. When the Thing is introduced, all hell breaks loose.
This movie works well, because of incredible directing, cinematography, and visual effects that hold up to this day. The way this story unfolds is so organic, and at the perfect pace, is a testament to Carpenter's skills as a storyteller.
There isn't a single area where I felt this movie was lacking. The atmosphere, sound design, story, acting, and effects are perfect. This movie has subtlety and terror wrapped so well into a perfect horror movie. If you haven't seen this movie, you absolutely must!
