The Thing is magnificent, to be sure. I'm surprised it gets as much criticism as it does. People complain the monster looks fake. Not half as fake as some of the CGI garbage we've been getting in the past ten years.
However, I think my favorite Carpentor film of all time is In the Mouth of Madness. It's also the last good film he ever made. And it's the best movie-interpretation of Lovecraftian elements I've ever seen.
