Today I talk about one of my all-time favorites. John Carpenter’s The Thing. Back in 1982 this amazing movie came out, and
I just watched it last night, and it’s still amazing. Seriously guys the special effects in this
are still great and if you think about this was 30 years ago and STILL it holds
up. Stan is the man Winston and his crew
designed some crazy monsters in this and for that FX alone you gotta watch
this.
Now let’s get to the story, I LOVE the closed off
environment, with the ticking clock and the suspense of who is the alien. The story is creepy and it was shot really
nice. Did I mention that Kurt Russell is
the lead? To me this is one of his best
roles, hands down.
I’ve seen this movie tons of times and last night watching
it again, it totally held up. It’s a
classic! I know I’ve said this before
but for me, Jaws, The Thing and Shining are all classics. If you haven’t watched it go see it, if you
have, I say see it again.
That’s it for now, I am packing up to go run from some
zombies in SoCal.
