A wonderfully crisp script and quick-paced direction distinguishes this film about an alien creature discovered near an Arctic outpost. Members of a scientific research team cart the frozen pilot back to camp where it thaws out--much to their regret.

    Pros: Bought it at www.USdvdMonster.com

    Cons: Almost paid too much somwhere else and that's a fact

    We compared prices on this DVD with www.USdvdMonster.com and found in most all cases when you add shipping cost USdvdMonster.com was less expensive. USdvdMonster.com only charged us $1.58 to ship compared to a $3.50 charge or more at all other Intern...et stores we compared. I whole heartedly recommend trying that website. We buy DVDs weekly and with my research www.USdvdMonster.com has the best overall prices on the Internet when you add shipping costs to the total purchase amount. Remember that most retailers make up for discounted retail prices in shipping cost Read more Less

    This is an original.....

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 21, 2003

    Never mind that piece of junk John Carpenter did in the early Eighties...the original Thing (From Another World), made in 1951 and directed suspensefully by Christian Nyby, uses crisp and intelligent dialogue that mixes beautifully with the movie'...;s moments of horror and humor. A great cast helps to make this masterpiece of the xenophobic Fifties far superior to the remake that relies on exploding bodies and the other various slime special effects that were becoming popular at that time. Science fiction at its best! Read more Less
