Hermione L Apr 21, 2019 The Thing is a well crafted and remarkable take of the '50's classic sci-fi film. The practical effects in this film are absolutely stunning and still hold up today. The movies plot is great and its characters are even better. They are well write, preformed, and are very memorable. This movie will really engage the viewer with everything about it. It will tamper with the viewers emotions and will even make them paranoid. No scenes from this film feel useless and stupid but they all feel just right where they are. The film also has one of the most, if not the most intense scene of all time (this is the blood test scene of course) and it will leave audiences in a sweat. Overall, a wonderfully made and memorable sci-fi horror film that will still leave the viewers feeling sick and paranoid, well done Carpenter. See more

Ron P Apr 7, 2019 Adesso finalmente capisco perche' questo film sia considerato una pietra miliare dell'horror, ammirato da moltissimi appassionati del genere, considerato un cult intramontabile da tantissimi esperti di cinema. Il film manifesta fin dai primi minuti un suo stile preciso e particolare, con inquadrature sempre cariche di significato che accompagnano con sicurezza una trama coinvolgente e geniale, basata su un'idea che non invecchiera' mai. I dialoghi sono realistici e concreti, basati su una sceneggiatura snella che non perde tempo e racconta solo il necessario. Le azioni dei personaggi sono decisamente intelligenti e pragmatiche visti i loro comportamenti realistici e condivisibili da gran parte degli spettatori, un aspetto che e' facilmente criticabile in molti horror recenti.

Anakin S Apr 2, 2019 This movie is suspenseful, sad, and creepy all at the same time. Also, it's a rare breed of horror movies where the character's thoughts and actions make sense. See more
