Why is this so? superior filmmaking? Why do modern movies lack this so much? even the scenes with the terminator and the music that accompanies his scenes sets a mood that is great.
Furthermore, I wish hollywood would give up on the rock, bautista, john cena, etc. Arnold was a fluke but none of these shitheads have his charisma.

James Cameron is an incredibly talented filmmaker, Arnold is one-of-a-kind, and it's R-rated and plays it dark and violent with no shitty quips to ruin the mood
This movie gives me an ultimate comfy feeling, my dad and I have mostly bonded over dad core action movies and this one is a true gem that takes me back to my childhood.
My dad would let me watch a little bit each night with him over the course of 2 weeks so I built up a lot of suspense and mystery within myself at school as to what would happen next, not to mention it was R and none of my classmates were allowed to see it.
The feeling and rush I get when Kyle Reese TP's into 80's then steals his clothes and runs from the cops is still there. My favourite scene is early on when kyle and the terminator track Sarah conner down to the 80s night club. The stalking methodicalness of the robot scared the shit out of me and just when it seems all over kyle whips out a shotty out from his trench coat and a fire fight in the red light disco is on.
I will always love that move
