But according to Universal Studios, The Thing will be a prequel, to John Carpenter's original 1982 horror classic. I'm surprised myself, that, this movie will be a prequel, since remakes are the IN thing for a younger Hollywood breed of "talent" that want to make a quick buck, and denying the true originality of its predecessors from years past. But, that's me only......and perhaps the millions of movie fans that may agree with this.
The Thing, like in the original, is a shapeshifting ET creature that assumes the identity of whatever, and whoever it kills. And this creature goes on a killing spree of sorts, just for the hell of it....no real reason behind why it kills. In fact, this movies had dismal box office numbers back in 1982, but has become a top rated cult classic to horror fans over the years, because of the impact of terror to the audiences it has, even to this day. Hopefully, this gets the well deserved numbers it deserves for the box office when it comes out next year. It's slated for April 29, 2011, just before the beginning of the summer blockbuster hits commence. Have fun.
