Be sure to slide on over to the Studio Movie Grill in Dallas on Wednesday, July 6, 2011 for a FREE SCREENING of The Thing. Grimmer and more terrifying than the 1950s take, John Carpenter's The Thing is a tense sci-fi thriller ride with compelling tension and some remarkable make-up effects.

Many fans were upset at the news of a prequel to John Carpenter's The Thing, but have been promised the film will stay true to Carpenter's masterpiece.
"Rest assured that there are scenes which will show The Thing morphing its shape, attacking from its duplicates in human form. One deviation with the way Moore's described his Thing transformations from the Johnson mini-series Thing transformations is that there aren't any Thing metamorphosis reveals/attacks that are carbon copies from the Carpenter movie. In Johnson's climax for Return of the Thing there were hundreds of spider-heads Things in mini-spaceships trying to flee to the outside world; in Moore's there's no duplicate creatures, it's all new monster shapes. Indeed, there's one Thing reveal that, if properly delivered, could stand alongside the Norris-chest-bursts-open moment from Carpenter's movie. I totally didn't see this particular Thing reveal coming (and neither did the human characters left who happened to be standing in the same room) but the way that The Thing chose to reveal itself and attack the remaining people makes a logical, if grotesque, sense. I hope that the director pulls that particular scene off well in the film because on paper it's a pretty "Goddamn that's insane!" scary moment."
The film will focus on the Norwegian team that first uncovered the alien. The prequel is currently shooting and is expected to be released in 2011. Source: http://www.killerfilm.com
