“The only reason i watched the remake to The Thing was for Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Forgive me John Carpenter, i am a slave to a pretty face”
“I couldn’t watch all of John Carpenter’s The Thing. I was laughing way too much at it. I walked out of the room after the head sprouted legs and started crawling around the floor.”
“I prefer “The Thing from Another World” to John Carpenter’s remake. But the final scene of the 2011 prequel, made me interested to go back and watch John Carpenter’s again. I’ve found a new love for it, but the 1951 will always be my favourite.”
“More kids should see The Thing. And I think the prequel is a perfect way to get them to recognize the original classic.”
“I love the atmosphere of dread and paranoia the 1982 The Thing had. The prequel was instead just a ‘creature feature’ and it didn’t satisfy me at ALL.”
“Jaws, the Thing, the Alien trilogy - they never once scared me but they are all my favorite horror movies, period, and I think they are better than 99% of the ‘scary’ crap that’s made today.”
“I hated Jon Carpenter’s version of the thing. I think the remake will be much better.”
