Movie Review: "The Thing" (1982)



So the original 1982 version of The Thing... we meet again... at night... thirty years later!

Kurt Russell was good in this cult classic -- which isn't surprising -- but what is surprising is that this movie ages very well.

Despite the leaps in special effects since the early 1980s, this movie is still good because it's more a psychological thriller than a monster flick.













This thing (pun intended) is definitely WATCHABLE!

PS: Wilford Brimley without a moustache!

PPS: A young Keith David!

QBF Rating: 3.5/5

NSFW Monday!

Good Morning! This is the 21st, and last of my "Body-Painted Football Babes Bonanza" series. Perhaps more importantly however, the semi-finals begin tomorrow in the World Cup! So a hearty congratulations to the great teams who made it: Uruguay versus Netherlands Germany versus Spain They will play each other tomorrow and Wednesday respectively, but all signs point to Germany defeating the Netherlands in the final. Now, back to the babes! We have ladies representing the Italian Republic (the only returning champion I'd wager, to ever come dead last in the weakest group), and the Republic of Korea (South Korea -- who lost to Uruguay in the 2nd round). - QBF Spicy Meatball: Korea's Taekwan-Don't Stop!
