The Thing Notations et commentaires
- Bait23 avril 2026Just watch it , right now. Do it.
- makdelart25 mars 2026It’s certainly a very good film – a true classic, you might say. However, the VHS-style special effects are a relic of the past, more amusing than scary.
- jackmeat16 janvier 2025My quick rating - 8.6/10. To take a flick from 1951 "The Thing from Another Planet" which in its time and still a classic, and actually improve, drastically on it is a tall feat. But John Carpenter did just that with this 1982 piece of gold. The story is simple, an Arctic expedition team happens across an alien ship and inadvertently releases it. Of course you don't really know what the Thing is since it mimics the host. To say this movie is simple though would be an outright lie. This movie transcended an entire generation of movies to follow it. This took the creature creation to an entirely new level, and still stands up today even in the CGI created worlds. The characters were extremely well written and cast to near perfection. This is paramount in a story where the alien could be the person standing right next to you. It is not often you can go back to a movie 38 years later and it is still phenomenal. Heck, I wish I may be like one of you reading this and have never seen it, just so I could be lucky enough to see it again for the first time. It is that good. There have been thousands of write ups for this movie over the years, so I won't go too deep into this (back when I did write for a newspaper, I had to write a certain amount for my column, now, I think quick and to the point is far more effective). Quick ending. SEE THIS
- Joseth Moore6 mars 2026One of THE best movie mixture of SciFi AND Horror! ~Joseth Moore; USA.
- Ty Leet25 avril 2025Incredible movie all around, such a shame that it never won any big awards - a Razzie nomination for the score is crazy!
- Mischa27 février 2025Every film maker is trying to pull off magic but this team achived the impossible. Everybit of this film is a lesson for film students.
- AngusMcNutz27 décembre 2024Roger Ebert said that there is no need to see this movie lol
- tellum21 août 2025Even if you are not a horror fan, this is a Must Watch. Any ‘Greatest Movies’ list has to consider this.
- Magnus Carlbaum28 janvier 2026John Carpenter's The Thing is one of the best horror movies of all time. Hyperbole? Nope. It is a masterclass piece of cinema history that I place firmly on the same shelf as The Exorcist, Jaws, Rosemary's Baby and Psycho. From the pulsating score, the cinematography, the paranoia inducing script, the memorable and very human characters, and even the best dog actor ever put on screen (fight me) to Rob Bottins pneumonia induced fever dream that is the practical effects. The Thing is the sum of its parts. If this review actually convinces someone to watch it for the first time - please let me know. That would put a great big smile on my face.
- Cubane2 novembre 2025Pitting people against each other in a confined space makes for a solid thriller narrative, and this movie does a stellar job with it. John Carpenter's direction prowess is on full display, though sadly he left his synthesiser in his other pants here.
- runinhot9 février 2026There's a Thing
- Gareth Price8 février 2026Probably the pinacle of its genre
- Vileblood26 décembre 2025"Perfection" - Magneto
- andy b30 octobre 2025classic what can i say 5/5. carpenter more like alchemist the way he be producing fine gold
- Steve Duxbury26 janvier 2026one of the best horror movies of all time
