Review of The Thing (2011) by Arkonblade — 02 Feb 2012
I was very pleased with this film . I loved the 1982 version of The Thing it was ground breaking and the effect where and still are amazing . This is not a Remake like it almost would seem by the name .
It is in fact a prequel set just before the events with kurt russell, now having seen the 1982 version about 10x I kinda know whats gona happen for the most part in this film , now that doesnt mean there wasnt alot to enjoy , seeing cool new versions of the thing (which are very well done) , and still being in suspense on who is infected and who isn't.
they stayed very true to leading up to every thing in carpenters version of the thing . the only thing that could have made this a much better film is if this was a sequel and we got to find out what happend to kurt russell and kieth david.
.. maybe a trilogy?... hopefully. still though silid movie all around.
