The Thing
just amazing… probably the most insanely good monster/gore effects i’ve ever seen, every single moment was captivating and it kept you double and triple guessing the meaning and motivation behind everything the characters said and did, such a good movie

The fact I was physically repulsed by the gruesome practical effects, just tells you everything you need to know. I went into this film completely and metaphorically blind, which is 100% recommended. stared it down while clenching my little cheeks and walked out feeling both insanely grateful yet horrified to have eyesight. The oozing tension from the dialogue and plot that continually grew from beginning to end was beautiful. It's hard to make a remake of a remake when the creativity and quality in designs and other 'things' is so good it feels illegal. Also, Kurt Russell.

This was a rewatch, and it was still as good as my first ever watch. For a almost 2 hour long movie, it felt really fast. The character interactions as they grow more skeptical of each other is amazing. And, of course, the practical effects in this film are what make it so good.

Delivers paranoia, body horror, & unforgettable practical effects. The “Among Us” mystery keeps viewers guessing until the ambiguous, chilling ending. Its Antarctic isolation, grotesque transformations create a timeless, haunting experience. That ending was ambiguous & chilling.

Holy shit. This might be genuine perfection. The writing, story, characters, VISUALSSS, SPECIAL EFFECTS, the absolutely nauseatingly tense atmosphere throughout the entire film, with REAL SCARES! This is seriously one of the best classic horror movies I’ve seen, or movies period.

Very good movie, nice that it was left the tiniest bit open ended. Did NOT know this was a film featuring Keith David, great actor. The acting was so good and the writing was outstanding as it left this really eerie paranoia throughout the entirety of the runtime. Awesome effects
