   Was that him, or was that an alien shapeshifter?   
      
   I just read the wiki article that said The Thing's initial reviews were   
   horrible, with one magazine calling it the most hated film of all time. I'm   
   surprised -- it seems like a very solid twist on the kind of story which   
   Alien did just a few years earlier.
