    I saw the 1982 version of The Thing when I was, like, 6 on HBO and had nightmares for almost a year. I’m 45 now, and that film still freaks me out!

      Have you rewatched it recently? It freaked me out the first time but after that it felt more campy.

        No, and now I won’t. It was just so perfect that I don’t want to ruin it.

        yeah, it really fucked me up. my poor little brother saw Poltergeist around the same age, and it fucked him up for years…
