    The perfect combination of claustrophobic horror and monster heterotype films, there is no soundtrack that pretends to be a ghost, the director's calm narrative style creates a suspenseful atmosphere just right, and there are no annoying brainless screams of big waves of beauties, and some are just calm and intelligent handsome guys The protagonist, as well as the bloody and disgusting alien body and the evil line drawing of human nature. The disadvantage is that the creation of the horror...

    It was spoiled a lot by the prequel, and I have seen some random monster special-shaped films, so the shock power is reduced, but it is conceivable that it was still very good in the past, mainly because of the concept and the stunts. by today's standards. I was still frightened in a few places, and I think it will be terrifying in retrospect. Four...

    Looking at the comments, it seems to be a classic monster movie, but where is the monster, where is the monster, it only appeared a few times, it was too boring to pull, but the shape is not bad, and some fight with the monster war. The story is too slow, the atmosphere is general, and some of the logic doesn't match the facts,...

    In terms of special effects, I appreciate the prequels more, of course. However, it has been quite good for eight years to have such an...

    The openness of this story is really attractive. The moral struggle of killing is lifted through people's fear, which makes "things" arrogant in the claustrophobic camp. I don't need to mention the special effects makeup that crosses the era, wahHHHAHAHHAHAH1o0o0O0O0OOooo000!...

    8.3 is very exciting, the human suspicion in the closed space is handled very well, the design of the thing is also shocking, and Carpenter must have a Cthulhu plot. The problem is similar to Alien 1, stupidity is...

    If Thor was filmed in the 1980s, the male protagonist would probably be the best choice for Thor! Still looking good in...

    The male pig is called Maddie... It is also a landmark work. When I watched it, I was shocked by the deep fear hidden under the simplicity. Blair's spider head has a lot of...

    It once again proved Carpenter's first-class atmosphere control, becoming one of the few horror films that people still have lingering fears after watching. Compared with Hawks' original version, the addition of the deformation imitation setting instantly doubles the horror of the whole film. But I have to say that the final presentation of the soundtrack is still Carpenter's own tune, which is a bit of a waste of Morricone's...

    What a wonderful horror film, what do you want, why didn't it develop into a series like...
