Pic related is mine. Such a solid movie. From being a critique of consumerism to racism, to an action movie, to comedy at some points. And while it might not be scary in the traditional sense, the opening scenes detailing the chaos around a news station trying to remain calm during the end of the world are done pretty well and set the mood for surviving the apocalypse.

    The Thing is great. I think there’s a lot of interesting things going on in that film when you’re analyzing it from a leftwing perspective. There’s no women in the film (even the dog is male I think lol), yet it doesn’t seem misogynistic. Any of the characters could have been women, but they aren’t because it was a roll of the dice in-universe. Like maybe there were women working there, but the film takes place the weekend where there was a shift change.
