The Thing, is, imho, the best movie of all time. But if you haven't seen the other two films in Carpenter's "Apocalypse Trilogy," (which is a thematic trilogy, not one connected by plot or characters), I highly recommend them: Prince of Darkness and In the Mouth of Madness are also both fantastic.

I (ashamedly) only just recently read the short story The Thing is based on, Who Goes There? Made me appreciate Carpenter's work even more.

It holds up pretty well for a story from a century ago, but I definitely prefer Carpenter's adaptation (and prefer both the the very loose adaptation Hawks did (in spite of being a huge Hawks fan in general).
