I'm really excited for The Thing prequel coming soon!

Love the John Carpenter movie so I can't wait for this.

Yeah, I saw it a couple of days ago, and it looks pretty scary. I also like Carpenter's movie, and this is a direct prequel. It's going to be good. And I think Mary Elizabeth Winstead is beautiful.

I would say that it looked pretty sinister, except the trailer gives away about half of the characters who have been replaced. The 'paranoia' aspect of not knowing who may be a host is what made the original Thing so scary. Sadly, this has been sacrificed for a more action packed trailer.

Did you guys know that THE THING would have been out on DVD already if they didn't try to reshoot it using animatronic effects?

Why is it red band? I saw almost no blood. There was no swearing. The only think was that mildly suggestive comment about being 'cooped up with a bunch of Norwiegian guys.'

It shouldn't be red band.

I'm not sure if I'm sold on this. It looks way too similar to the first, and yes, I know this is a prequel. Same paranoia, same dog scenes, same scientists finding out what is causing the mutations.

I will see it eventually, once it is released on Netflix.
