More exiting than the vague title would suggest, J. Carpenter's infamous gore-fest is a finely crafted thriller featuring some of the most bizarre make-up effects ever captured on celluloid.
Situated in a remote arctic research facility, the film follows Kurt Russel and his colleagues as they battle against an extraterrestrial horror they inadvertently unearthed from a glacier.
This 'thing', whatever it is, can take any shape it wants, leading to frequently bloody creature transformations. As the movie progresses the creatures get weirder and more grotesque, an impressive feat considering that it was accomplished without any computer special effects.
The relative lack of cheesy dialogue and complete absence of female nudity (or females altogether) are notable departures from the standard format of the genre. This gives the film more time to explore the evolution of suspicion and paranoia between the researchers, as well as the desperate acts of self-preservation that ultimately result.
An excellent film with very few weak moments. A worthy 'collectors' edition with tons of extras including an 80 minute making of movie, commentary, deleted scenes and more! Highly Recommended.

Movie scared me to death as a child. now kind of cheesy but still cool. the scene where they are all tied up together on chairs and one of them turns out to be the thing....way scary. I would have the same reaction they did, like, Oh,#$%@!!!!! in hd the quality is good. not much for bonus features. still highly enjoyable.

Ive seen this flick a hundred times... but never in the threatre. Bought it for me brother for his b-day. We watched it on his new 60" 1080P plasma from about 6' back. The video was a bit grainy, and the blacks were a bit washed out in a couple scenes, but the sound was very clean. All that aside - what really matters is that I was totally involved in this movie; almost like seeing it again for the first time. Stan Winston's wizardry was as stunning and seemless as my best memories of it. C.G. can look phony or dated (!) on the new high rez formats, but the best of the tried and true old school methods still kick butt! Highly recommended for fans of the genre. If you haven't seen this movie before GET IT! You won't be disappointed.

I like this cover (the one with the man with no face) better than the other cover (the face covered in snow). Its just a better cover, the other one sucks.
Both DVDs are essentially the same. I cant find a deep difference. Just pick the cover that you liek best.
Other than that, this is one of the most claustophobic movies you'll ever see. Its really one of the scariest I've seen. Watch it by yourself in the dark for a better effect. Especially if you've never seen it before.
I give the film a perfect 10.

This movie's amazing. Definitely Carpenter's best work. You can NOT miss this...it set a bar for sci fi horror that still stands today.
