    One of the greatest sci-fi horror films in movie history. John Carpenter's "The Thing" can be described as the leader of pure horror films. The monster modeling and destruction scenes have the characteristics of B-level films, but the narrative and performance are very calm, exuding grand thematic characteristics. In the seemingly simple "alien" invasion story, the movie finally settled on the "doomsday complex", which is a very unexpected but natural...

    It's really good-looking, a horror masterpiece that combines suspense, horror and blood, but because I prefer secret room thrillers, this movie can still attract me from the beginning. The whole movie is actually very similar to "Alien". It is a monster movie that takes place in a small-scale scene, and it is equally bloody and full of horror. I watched the prequel of this a long time ago, and there are quite a lot of connections. I have time to watch it...

    I just watched this after watching the prequels~ It feels really good, but the way of explaining events in the movies at that time was not the same as it is now, so you need to think about it. The most rare thing is that there is no woman in the whole film~...

    After reviewing it, I found that the prequel and the 82 version are really well connected, and the 82 version is really scary and depressing... BD 720P...

    There is only such a bad public version of Chinese subtitles for this movie history classic... With his extraordinary imagination and the superb skills of the special makeup and makeup team, Carpenter and Scott's first "Alien" jointly created the sci-fi thriller. A new type of film field. The influence of this film can even be seen in the later two-dimensional "Otheran Island" and "Parasitic Beast". The crisis of human trust caused by the "virus" is also in line with the current social...

    There is a place where I am a little puzzled, that the one who killed the doctor was infected, how could he still...

    Very touching, one of the best sci-fi horror films I've ever seen, comparable to Scott's Alien. The hearts of non-me races are not necessarily different, this is the terrible disguise, and the rhythm is absolutely gripping. The ending is open-ended,...

    It's amazing to be able to make such an excellent movie in 1982. No matter the plot or the appearance of the monsters, it's pretty good. On the other hand, most of the horror movies released now have really not...

    Good suspense setting and super forward-looking alien design, and the open ending is also very...

    I watched it when I was very young, the classic scenes are still fresh in my memory, but I was fortunate enough to relive it, and the prequel is also coming out...

The Thing quotes

  • Fuchs: [whispering] I have to talk to you.

    MacReady: I'm tired of talkin', Fuchs. I just wanna get up to my shack and get drunk.

    Fuchs: Mac, it's important.

    MacReady: What is it?

    Fuchs: Outside.

    MacReady: It's 40 below zero outside.

  • MacReady: I don't know. Thousands of years ago it crashes, and this thing... gets thrown out, or crawls out, and it ends up freezing in the ice.

    Childs: I just cannot believe any of this voodoo bullshit.

    Palmer: Childs, happens all the time, man. They're falling out of the skies like flies. Government knows all about it, right, Mac?

    Childs: You believe any of this voodoo bullshit, Blair?

    Palmer: Childs, Childs... Chariots of the Gods, man. They practically own South America. I mean, they taught the Incas everything they know.

    Garry: So, come on now, MacReady, Norwegians get ahold of this... and they dig it up out of the ice.

    MacReady: Yes, Garry, they dig it up, they cart it back, it gets thawed out, it wakes up... probably not the best of moods... I don't know, I wasn't there!

    Nauls: [skates in with ripped long johns] Which one of you disrespectful men been tossing his dirty drawers in the kitchen trash can, huh? From now, I want my kitchen clean, all right? Germ free!

    Childs: So how's this motherfucker wake up after thousands of years in the ice?

    George Bennings: And how can it look like a dog?

    MacReady: I don't know how. 'Cause it's different than us, see? 'Cause it's from outer space. What do you want from me? Ask him!

    [motions to Blair]

    Childs: You buy any of this Blair?
