Synopsis:
It's not human. Yet. From the producers of Dawn of the Dead comes the chilling prelude to John Carpenter's cult classic film. When paleontologist Kate Lloyd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) travels to an isolated outpost in Antarctica for the expedition of a lifetime, she joins an international team that unearths a remarkable discovery. Their elation quickly turns to fear as they realize that their experiment has freed a mysterious being from its frozen prison. Paranoia spreads like an epidemic as a creature that can mimic anything it touches will pit human against human as it tries to survive and flourish in this spine-tingling thriller.

Faithful to the original with better effects and sound.

this THING is no prequel...yes, a few twists are introduced, but excepting the last half hour dette daeming ting is mainlining off the original...the cast, unremarkable in itself, has little to work with, and fails to, particularly the female standin for kurt russell, the most unpleasant surprise this tensionless flik has to offer...fx are good but can't begin to compensate for sheer lack of quality...the unpronounceable director does manage to keep the sound boom out of most shots...
