User blog comment:CrashingCymbal/Your favourite Horror Movie ever?/@comment-4099220-20130908223242/@comment-10950063-20130908230222

The Thing is one of my favorite movies. It's so good, even that dog is an amazing actor. The way it kind of slinks down the hallway, discreetly checking in doors. It's also a great mix of tense sci-fi/horror and ridiculousness. There's some moments where you just have to laugh, but the movie is always aware of what it's doing. Also, the special effects are still top-notch and look better than a lot of CGI bullshit these days.
