Another movie hits the channel but this time, it's a horror movie that's regarded as pop culture. Put it this way, Chefs Kiss!

I went into this movie mentally prepared for the classic horror genre but came out utterly surprised and flabbergasted. It felt like a board game and I loved it!

Another thing I absolutely loved and forgot to mention in the post watch review, it's the use of practical effects! I'm sick of CGI bollocks and yeah, I know it's cheaper and sometimes easier but watching this, felt amazing, looked amazing and more importantly got me invested into the film. WOW!

Amazing recommendation from you guys and I'm loving checking out the genre I'm most weakest in. Keep them coming! I want to continue exploring the horror genre even out of Spooktober!

Oh hell yeah. I love The Thing. Now I know what I'm doing after work today. Did you ever see the 2011 Thing? (I think it was 2011)

Onearmy

It's actually a prequel of sorts. Without spoiling anything, the end of it leads directly into the beginning of the original movie. It was an okay movie; my main complaint was the over reliance of CGI compared to practical effects, but the way it tied into the original movie was really cool.

Chris Clark

Yes i love this movie! This in one of those movies where you go yes practical effects are king. Remember seeing this back in 91 at the age of 8. I would avoid the 2011 film. Its reliance on CGI just ruins it for me. But the OG is a classic

Alex Boev

btw the movie is based on the great novella by John Campbell

I mean honestly, saying that it's a prequel is spoiling the biggest thing the movie had going for it. It was marketed as a straight up remake leading up to the release. That being said, it does rely almost entirely on CG. It's a shame too, because they started out the making of it using only practical to keep with the OG's style, but the studio execs said it was too expensive and complicated to keep going, so they switched to CG halfway through filming.

Onearmy

Perhaps, but for anybody who saw the original, once you realize they're Norwegian in the remake (plus the dogs), it's easy to put 2 and 2 together almost immediately for anybody actively paying attention. Nonetheless it was interesting to get the story of what happened at the Norwegian camp; the was one thing the original kind of left up to the imagination. Maybe for the better?

One of the best performances from a dog, up there with the new horror movie "Good Boy" . Still can't believe that this movie was labeled as a failure at the time, and was hated by critics.

My favorite movie

It is VERY difficult to aim from a moving helicopter

Zeallust

That dog that you kept being unsure whether it was a dog or a wolf, hes a wolf-dog, named Jed. So both are correct assumptions lol. He was quite a prolific actor at the time.

Zeallust

They wouldn't have survived the first night if Mac didn't suggest lighting the thing on fire

Zeallust

Have you seen No Country For Old Men? From a non-film maker perspective I get a lot of similar cinematic vibes from that as this. Wouldn't quite fit as a Halloween movie, though I'd consider it horror even if its technically not.

Zeallust

Mac did test his own blood during the blood test scene, you were talking about something during that moment though. He says "Let me show you what I already know" before testing himself

MothMaker

I’m totally on board with more horror, even outside of October.

Reacher

With this being your first introduction to John Carpenter, and with it still being spooky season, I highly recommend Halloween. I'm not much of a horror guy, but Halloween is awesome, and there's lots of things you'd love about it!

Greg Ygnacio

To your point about the acting not being the greatest but it somehow works, I think if you had more serious acting or dramatic monologues it would take you out of the movie. Their acting makes it really feel like a bunch of average guys that are confused, out of their depth, and kinda stumbling towards a solution.

Wedge126

I know I’m very late to this but one of my favourite film facts is the Norwegian gunman from the start of the film tells them to get away from that thing and it’s not a dog which only people who can speak Norwegian would of got

The night is Dank and full of Memers

On the ending. We don't always need to follow a book of instructions, we don't always need everything spoon fed to us, leaving nothing to think about or interoperate ourselves. This would make everything feel soulless, generic, homogenized (95% of modern cinema with digital cameras and stories that require dialogue explaining everything three times because they expect you to be on your phone.) There is a reason this movie is still discussed today. If it had a clear conclusion, that would not be case nearly as much. I will always chose a story that respects the audience's intelligence instead of over explaining and having everything clear cut.
