In 2001 the United States Library of Congress deemed the film [The Thing from Another World] "culturally significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.[19] [20] Additionally, Time magazine named The Thing from Another World the greatest 1950s sci-fi movie.

What a great list of movies! I remember watching Them about 50 years ago... very scary. I would love to own all of the above films on Blu-ray. And I must disagree with Time Magazine. IMHO, The Day the Earth Stood Still is my favorite Sy-fi film from the 1950's, which is, as you know, available on Blu and looks great.
