" 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." =( lol

One of the most severely underrated movies of all time. To this day, it stands up to and well above modern horror movies. A true master of horror with the musical chops to match...God Bless John Carpenter.....and John Wayne too (wink John, and greetings again from West Marin :)

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. I was referring to reviews, the press/media. It was most certainly reviewed poorly and put in a terrible light. I have chatted with John Carpenter via facebook and I have to say that I stand by my opinion. I think true horror fans would agree with you as do I...it's a shame the media and critics did not.

The Thing (1982) directed by John and Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott to me both of them are all about fear and paranoia and isolation and most important of all horror so as a 90s kid and an early 2000s kid i have considered both The Thing (1982) and Alien (1979) the greatest sci-fi horror movies ever created as well:).

1000000% agree with you. Though I'm personally partial to Alien, Alien was actually inspired directly by The Thing, obviously before Carpenter's The Thing was actually made. Alien screenwriters Dan O' Bannon and Ron Shusett (sp?) worked with Carpenter on Dark Star and were inspired by both that and the source material for The Thing (The Thing From Another World and Who Goes There?). (They also wrote Verhoeven's Total Recall. How the fuck can you be so talented as to write two completely different but equally brilliant sci-fi scripts?) EDIT: Shusett did not actually work on Dark Star, that was all O'Bannon.

It is Carpenter written music, but John is courteous enough to credit Morricone who received billing for the score. Carpenter re-wrote most of the music for the film, including the main theme.

Not quite, Kusoge. Morricone wrote music based on the overall feel of the script (didn't compose to-picture) and Carpenter wanted it to be more musically Carpenter-esque. He had Morricone listen to the score to Escape From New York and asked him to write something closer to that. The theme in this video is the result, although this rendition is even more Carpenter-esque. There were still scenes that Morricone's tone poems wouldn't fit though, so Carpenter and Alan Howarth wrote a small handful of pieces here and there. This is all detailed on Shout Factory's Blu-ray.

The Thing is what I always recommend to people who love Alien (my personal favorite movie of all time) - almost on the same level. Very similar premise (Dan O'Bannon who wrote Alien was directly inspired by his work on Dark Star w/Carpenter as well as Thing From Another World/Who Goes There?, on record as saying (paraphrasing), "If I couldn't make a silly/funny alien, I wanted to make a scary one" - and oh boy he did!) but completely different atmosphere. Alien is more or less played seriously (though there are definitely funny moments) but The Thing has such a fantastic sense of humor and is also very serious and scary at the same time. Wilford Brimley's entire character lives rent free in my head. Interestingly I've been trying to get my dad to watch The Thing for years because he and I both love Alien - but he hates most other horror. Couldn't stand The Fly and doesn't like much body horror. Think he would love The Thing if he gave it a proper chance though.

Would disagree with you just a big b/c I'm partial to Alien. But yes The Thing's source material directly inspired Alien (and likewise Alien's release probably inspired The Thing to some extent too) and to me they are the perfect companion movies. I would even venture The Thing is a better Alien companion movie than Aliens. Very similar premise even down to characters calling each other by their last names but both completely unique in their treatment of the premise/vision and almost on par with one another. Predator is nowhere near on the level of either Alien or The Thing... honestly even that AvP exists is infuriating to me.
