Absolutely brilliant story, acting, atmosphere, character and costume design etc. It can never be topped.

My favourite movie of all time no questions asked is "The Thing".

80s/90s pre-CGI explosion action movies are always the best.

BE - I much prefer older movies, particularly one's from the 70, they were more gritty and realistic, the storylines were often better, and they weren't spoiled by unnecessary CGI, the acting was really something else back then.
