The Thing (1982)
9/10
Carpenter's best film...
9 November 2005
I know a lot of people love Carpenter's "Halloween" and consider it his masterpiece, but this is easily my favourite flick of his, especially as I tend to prefer monsters of the monster kind, as opposed to the human kind.

Everything comes together well here...great ensemble acting, amazing effects, excellent script, incredible tension and atmosphere and great music by Ennio Morricone. Even the dog is great! This is one of those classic horror/sci-fi flicks that is great to own on DVD, as you can go back and watch it regularly, since it holds up so well. Extras on the DVD are great too.

What is there more to say that hasn't been said by others here? This film comes with a high recommendation for lovers of the genre, so be sure to check it out.
