Yes, the Carpenter film is a hallmark for the genre. I was in graduate school for English literature when I first saw Carpenter's The Thing and was convinced that Carpenter was influenced by a Lord Byron poem called Darkness. The last scene of the movie is particularly evocative of the Byron poem. (Amazing what our young fervent brains can dream up!)
