One word: SCARY!

Rating: Null/10 (21 October 2001)

I've rented John Carpenter's The Thing today, I am a fan of John Carpenter's and I have never seen this film but heard many great things about. Many of the user comments for this film are positive and I for one will be positive as well. This movie from the beginning to the end was scary as hell, the makeup effects by Rob Bottin were totally awesome, best I have ever seen in a horror film since Evil Dead 2. John Carpenter is an old school director but he knows how to deliver the goods to the audiences, I definitely recommend this film to all horror or sci-fi buffs as it is more entertaining than the original.
