The Very Best in Sci-Fi/Horror!

Rating: 10/10 (9 March 2004)

This film is by far one of the greatest movies ever made. Every scene adds importantce to the story or characters. Each character is well-developed, acted and realistic. The story is about a group of men in the south pole researching when they come across a life form not from this planet. Soon paranioa and Fear kick in as the thing takes the form of the men. Kurt Russell is by far at his best in this movie. They should of win academy awards for it's effects and musical score. It's so creepy that I get goosebumps every time I hear it. Even people who are'nt fans of John Carpenter or Kurt Russell will love this movie. At the box office ET blew out The Thing and that is why this movie is so underrated just like John Carpenter's career. The ending alone will have you wondering for weeks and again each time you watch it.
10 out of 10
