The Thing

The Thing is one of the all time horror movies and with great reason. Even though there are a lot of characters, nothing is shoving them down your throat and forcing you to care for them. The acting is really solid. Of course the movie is really unique and fresh and the practical effects are actually really good for its time. The movie uses many different elements to make you scared like, obviously the scary creatures but also paranoia which is really fresh. I also love the winter vibes and it matches well either way the cinematography. There isn’t a lot of action but when there is it’s good and pleasant to look at. For most horror movies, when the villain isn’t in the scene the movie is boring but for the thing I don’t get that at all. The movie is also brilliantly paced and just goes up and up and up. Overall this is one of my favourite horror films of all time, I give it a 9.5/10
