Review Detail

What can I say? It's a bold little experiment that succeeds in converting Carpenter's Thing into the product of a different time, the 4:3 damaged footage that somehow never feels like you''re missing anything, the added 50s sci-fi tracks and cuts are so good I can't even pick out an issue! The fact this comes in different tracks is a nice bonus, though I think the default option is the best one in terms of authenticity to the idea. It's a bold new way to experience one of Carpenter's best movies, an edit definitely worth watching if only out of curiousity.
