The most realistic sci-fi / horror movie ever made

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2010)

If you like Sci-fi / horror movies, then I promise that John Carpenter's version of The Thing will not disappoint you. It has a good, suspenseful story, great acting from interesting characters, and even better special effects. There are some moments in the movie that still make my skin crawl. The best aspect of The Thing is that it seems very realistic. The characters look and act like real people would if they were thrust into this situation. It also withstands the test of time. In my opinion, it is still the scariest and most realistic horror movie I have seen.
This is the only movie I would give a rating of 10. Way too many people throw around 10 star ratings on movies that they simply liked.
