John Carpenter's "The Thing," which came out in 1984 was a great psychological horror flick that had its share of action. If you haven't seen it, I strongly recommend you do. It was the only movie that ever scared me - and I laughed at "The Ring" and "The Exorcist." The videogame based on the movie is also pretty good, nothing special, but definitely above average quality. While it's not as scary as some other titles out there (F.E.A.R., Doom 3), it still maintains a creepy atmosphere and the gameplay is pretty damn good. Managing your squad is easy and fun and adds a much-needed layer of depth to the game - but never trust anyone.
