Initially panned by critics, this early '80s supernatural thriller from horror director John Carpenter gained a cult following and is now considered one of the most influential films of its kind. What is it?

Based on the John W. Campbell Jr.'s 1938 sci-fi/horror novella "Who Goes There?," The Thing is about an American research team based in Antarctica. Hunted by a shape-shifting alien that assumes the appearance of its victims, the team members start to distrust and turn on one another.
