Grade 93 A
What a great fun intense movie! John Carpenter knocked that shit out of the park! I love Kurt Russell, he's in one of my favorite movies of all time, and yet it took my oldest to push me to watch this film, so we had a family movie night to see this amazing film.
Holy shit! I can't say enough about this great epic movie. How did I wait this long to watch it!? Did anyone else see this masterpiece? Did you like it or hate it?
Right?! It's great! I just recently saw a board game based on the movie and I kinda want it. I wouldn't mind one bit filling my house with Thing memorabilia hahaha.
It's a beautiful movie that leaves you questioning if the thing is dead...it's amazing! The dog kennel scene sucked lol I loved how the whole movie revolves around the first scene. How Kurt Russell's character plays chess and that's pretty much the movie, a game of chess. The thing strategically moved pieces around to win and potentially moved a pawn off the board before the explosion took place, but we'll never know! Lol
I have always loved The Thing! It's iconic and when I spot elements in other movies that seem to pull from this film, I'm like "yesssss!" The dog kennel scene kills me though, haha.
