"In Antarctica, no one can hear you scream...either!!!"

Rating: 9/10 (17 July 2003)

It caught me off guard with those guys shooting at a dog, right at the start of the movie and almost becoming angry, my friends and I nearly walked out of the theatre, wow, glad we didn't!!! After seeing "Alien", there was no way, someone could have come up with another "metamorphasing creature" to take over your body in such a frightening manner! It was really creepy trying to figure out who had been taken over next by the creature, Kurt Russell, did a great job as he usually does, in whatever role he takes. Oh of course, I saw the "original" Thing with James Arness but that was a joke...even funny !!! Even the re-make of the "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" wasn't scary...just intriguing!! Yes, the Thing is one all time great sci-fi thrillers...right with... Aliens, Predator, Terminator, Pitch Black, Blade and the Matrix...!!!
