30 Day film challenge 2022 edition - Day 29

 

A fave remake. The Thing. No question. It's a masterpiece of body horror, proper scares and nailbiting tension. Far superior to the original. It's what happens when a brilliant director (John Carpenter) and a visionary make up artist (Rob Bottin) work together on a very solid story. Characters you give a fuck about in a terrifying situation and trapped with an enemy they can't fight as they don't know who it is. It's magnificent. If you haven't seen it I'm very jealous.
