Seriously fight monsters half of the classic

I have watched a lot of old movies recently, mainly because the classics I saw by chance have classics, such as the previous "Rosemary's Baby", which was shot in 1968, and it is also high-level now. John Carpenter's name, including this "Strange Shape", has long been heard, from 1982, but compared with the former, it really looks like a B-rated film.

From the perspective of the movie itself, the special effects, perseverance, and even the shots of the lines are not mentioned. The outdated ones are understandable. There is a little problem with the advancement of the plot. The process of people understanding the truth and even the characteristics of monsters is too fast, just follow Someone spoiled them the same.

Seeing a lot of people say it is a claustrophobic film, is it claustrophobic? Not counting. In my opinion, it is a typical alien invasion one by one. And this is a rare thing, even though the supporting actors died so many years ago that they didn’t deliberately or scribbled or brainlessly. It seems that although the same routine can be used many times, the result of development is not necessarily progressive. What's more rare is that from the role to the main creative, they are serious about fighting monsters, which is better than those coquettish top guys who insist on standing in teams and arranging an open ending.

No matter the direct fear of aliens invading the human body, or the complete distrust between people caused by this, it is one of the irreversible and irreversible innate factors that make people born. This is also one of the things. .

I heard there is a prequel? Don't plan to watch it.

    The first part of John Carpenter's "Apocalypse" trilogy, a sci-fi horror classic comparable to "Alien". The remake of "Weirdo" produced by Howard Hawks in 1951, the 1982 version surpassed the old version in all aspects. The film is immersed in a strange and terrifying atmosphere from the beginning, and then it can make you want to divert your attention for a moment. The film is also a benchmark in film special effects makeup.

    I watched it when I was in elementary school, and I only remember the dog. I had some new experiences while watching Halloween again. Suspicion and mutual distrust are always the usual means of conflict in claustrophobic spaces. Mucus and blood are always reminiscent of old-fashioned cans with aspic. Morricone’s dubbing was actually nominated for Jin Sumei, which is actually quite good.

The Thing quotes

  • MacReady: I know I'm human. And if you were all these things, then you'd just attack me right now, so some of you are still human. This thing doesn't want to show itself, it wants to hide inside an imitation. It'll fight if it has to, but it's vulnerable out in the open. If it takes us over, then it has no more enemies, nobody left to kill it. And then it's won.

  • MacReady: How you doin', old boy?

    Dr. Blair: I don't know who to trust.

    MacReady: [swallows, sighs] I know what you mean, Blair. Trust's a tough thing to come by these days. Tell you what - why don't you just trust in the Lord?
