The Thing Reviews

May 12, 2025

Absolute classic, the claustrophobic paranoia is the real driver of this film. Solid acting, decent practical effects and puppeteering for the monster still hold up today. The sequel is a legitimate must see perfectly tied into this film too.

Sci-fi horror done right! Fantastic practical effects with violently creative scenes. Interesting, believable characters and an intoxicating atmosphere. Classic!

The visual effects, the story and the characters are the foundation of an amazing horror movie.

The epitamy of horror movies with lots of body gore, and an amazing movie overall!

One of the, if not the, greatest sci-fi, thriller, and mystery, and maybe even horror movie of all time! It masters each element perfectly. The story is well crafted and the ending left me with 5000 theories! The whole cast pulls it off perfectly, a 10/10 must see!

This sci-fi gem is hands down John Carpenter’s best movie and he has a good number of top rate sci-fi/horror films under his belt. A must movie for your collection. Kurt Russel gives an oscar performance in an outstanding acting career. Can’t believe it took all this time for Hollywood to recognize this film as a masterpiece.

The movie is well made, with brilliant performances, great suspense, and a creepy and grotesque villain, with exactly the right amount of horror. However, it does feel slow from time to time, which hurts the film.

My friend ruined it for me, now it just seems sloppy :/

One of the best films ever made. This is how a psychological thriller horror movie should make an audience feel. Simply a masterpiece..

I saw this is a freezing cold cinema 40 years ago. I was the only one there and the setting could not have been more perfect. Even if you can't recreate that, do watch this magnificent film. Not one for chuckles and popcorn.

Good writing and the music is always slightly there keeping it feeling intense the whole time. Most decisions made where very sensible which made it stay interesting and like you need to see what happens.
