VHS Movie Reviews of The Thing [VHS]
Movie Review: Just how I remembered it....
Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed the gore although the movie was a bit short but still good.Movie Review: moderately satisfied
Summary: 4 Stars
didn't really mind that there was no cover (i think that was in the details that I didn't read) but it took a week longer than it should have to get here. I needed it for a project so I ended up having to buy another copy at best buy. Only reason I'm not more miffed is that I needed another copy anyway.Movie Review: One of my best purchases !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Perhaps one of the best sci-fi movies ever. The commentary with Kurt Russel and John Carpenter is awesome. I highly recommend this.Movie Review: If You Liked 'Alien,' You'll Like This
Summary: 4 Stars
This intense sci-fi film is almost horror in nature, a la "Alien" as it features a tremendous amount of suspense. In fact, if you liked "Alien," you'll probably like this, the main difference of the two films being the different setting and a different cast.
The cast may be different but the characters are the same: scientists-heroes who are all profane low-life-types who you would never see in professions and positions like this. Only in the world of film do you see sleazy people like this in high-tech intelligent positions such as astronauts or scientists. Who better to exemplify this in the 1980s than self-proclaimed macho man Kurt Russell?
Back to the positives: besides the great suspense, the story is an involving one that hooks you in fairly early and never lets go. I have a widescreen VHS copy which looks nice, too, since the visuals definitely warranted a widescreen viewing experience. I suspect a Blu-Ray verson of this would really look great.
Movie Review: "The Thing" about a classic...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best, if not the best horror/Si-Fi movies ever made. I saw this movie when it firt came out and was blown away by the great craft that went into it's making. This is by far John Carpenters crowning achievement. When it first came out critcs were not kind to this remake. It is not really a remake of the black and white film. John Carpenter's interpretation is remarkable!! I guarantee, if you are a fan of horror/Si-Fi films, you will find great pleasure in watching this great film.
... it can be watched over and over again!!!
