John Carpenter saw this film, and said it had a great premise, but sadly, the overuse of CGI ruins the suspense of the original film.

The fillings test does not because it realizes even if its discovered to have none it doesn't need to attack. I actually prefer their test in this prequel because of said false positives.

Indeed. The director and many of the actors are also fans of Cerpenter's movie. I was on the Outpost 31 forums back when they were doing research to make sure the Prequel would be as good as they could make it. Sadly, this movie got shot in the foot by the studio and rushed for time, which is why the practical effects were scrapped and the CGI stuff isn't as polished as it should be. I really feel for these people who shared the rest of the fanbase's hopes, and had them dashed so badly by studio execs who just wanted to profit off of the title, rather than let them make an epic companion piece to Carpenter's masterpiece. It's still a very good companion piece, but the story of what could've been hurts. Really if any true fans of The Thing come across the people who made this movie, don't be harsh on them. Thank them for their efforts and let them know that in our hearts, we know they were trying their best.

@@risenfromyoutubesashesagai6302 yea I read about that. Too bad. Practical effects would have made the movie so much better

I felt the 80s version did a lot better with the eerie uncertainty of knowing who was infected. I got the impression in that movie that not even the infected people knew until the creature had to act in self-defence -- and then their bodies started mutating horribly. Especially at the end when you just had Kurt Russel and Keith David sitting next to each other and not sure wither they were human or alien; that ending always haunted me. However, what really blew me away was the 1951 original black and white move that I saw entirely by accident on the Horror Channel. Really suspenseful and full of great moments - like when all the men spread out to work out the shape of the object beneath the ice and ended out in the shape of a saucer.

I really enjoyed the prequel film. I saw it in the theatre when it came out. After the credits rolled, I walked out thinking, "Damn! That's how you do a prequel to a masterpiece." The prequel isn't a masterpiece, but hits all the right buttons for me. I went in knowing what the alien was and how it operated, obviously, so I knew I wasn't going to get the same level of paranoia and fear. All I wanted was a logical depiction of what exactly happened at the Norwegian camp, one that fit the aftermath we saw in the original film. That's an impressive feat of matching the two up retroactively. And we get some new, logical lore and ideas (fillings, metal plates) that fit the original (Doc Copper has a nose ring, so that's another clue that he wasn't infected, even though Mac had him tied up. Mac didn't consider piercings). I don't mind the CGI. The story required bigger Thing effects, wholesale monstrosities tearing the Norwegian camp apart. That's harder to do with practical effects. Maybe they should've tried anyway, but I'm content with what we got. The effects artist on the original had a nervous breakdown working on that film, so maybe it was for the best that they employed CG. I think the prequel is a worthy addition to JC's movie and accomplished extremely well what it set out to do.

The creature acted so differently though going into John carpenters film. Going into this movie I knew what the thing was but the alien in this film was just so in your face all the time. Good movie but could’ve been so much better had they atleast characterized the alien the same way instead of assuming people just want action. It took away what i loved about the thing and that was cold and calculating. Waiting for that right moment so you legitimately have no idea who’s the thing and who’s not.

On the surface and on the page, this was a really solid prequel. It's just really disappointing that due to time constraints, budget cuts, and some poor decision making regarding the special and visual effects, that's always going to be its legacy.

NoTHING will ever beat the 1982 masterpiece, but I did really enjoy this prequel.

Luckily, for Kate, the things have this odd tendency to roar/scream before attacking her in a slow, clumsy fashion, as opposed to the stealthier, lightning fast, and precise attacks they perform on virtually every other member of the cast. They must have forgotten to wear their plot armor.

I’m such a nerd for this movie that I know that if you look closely in the background, the black rounded shape behind The Thing here is one of the puppeteers’ head and shoulders. It is far more noticeable if you watch the actual clip rather than a still. Edit: 24:28 is the scene in motion. Look behind The Thing. 😅

That scene where Adam gets fused with the creature still haunts me

While I think the films heart was in the right place, I had two major problems with this prequel, 1 according to the 1982 John Carpenter film the Norwegians used thermite charges to uncover the alien ship and 2 the over use of CGI over the originally promised practical effects.

I love the eye light, In order to give myself some kind of peace with this before I die I'm going with this example.

Rob Ager has some fantastic videos on theories and questions from Carpenters film that I didn't even realize existed before. Like the Keys and who destroyed the blood bank and continuity of the jackets and even the eye flare theory. His thoughts on this film are very insightful as well!

Such a good movie and the 1982 one too. They need to make a big budget version, maybe a sequel.

Far as sequel prequels go I would say this is not the worst, I always had more fear of the creatures shown in this movie even if the CGI was poor it made them move with frightening agility where the old movie feels like the creature is a more clumsy and usually stationary growth

11:04 A phrase I would never had guessed it would came out from Niyat someday.

This Confirmes that the Thing is the first among us.

It would be interesting to see The Thing assimilate a xenomorph queen or a Yautja....

Interesting (or boring) piece of trivia, the signal heard by the Norwegians in the snowmobile at the start of the film sounds identical to the signal of the sister ship in the movie Sunshine.

Shortly after the first Thing movie came out, someone wrote a novella from the perspective of the alien, which is actually a benevolent collective consciousness that is bewildered at the hostility of the humans. This is because the assimilation process is so terrifying to us.

Loved this movie. The original was great too. Fantastic survival horror film.

I tentatively found the assimilator's inability to imitate prosthetics, a red herring (wrt to screenings). Considering it hypothetically could put it back and maintain it.

When the movie was nearing the end with the power out and kate alongside Sam walk down the hallway; flamethrower and axe in hand, it reminded me of a mix of resident evil and Anime Parasite.

Although some panned this film I feel it was done perfectly and set up the original completely. I have watched the 1982's thing right after this prequal and its like watching one 4hr movie! You could edit both these films together and show it to someone who has never seen either before and they wouldn't be able to tell the difference! Done brilliantly IMHO!

One of those things - probably the one that killed and replicated Griggs - either followed Juliet into the washroom , or possibly it waited for her in there - cornered Juliet in there , and then it must have split or molted , with one piece reconstituting itself back into ‘ Griggs ‘ , the other piece assimilating and then replicating Juliet .

You gotta do Barbarian!!

Along with the 2011 prequel the thing was going to have a sequel tv mini series. I think there would have been a seen where the thing was not only on the main land but also disguise as a person that disappears in a crowd of busy people in New York city.

I didn't even realize they remade this

Now that I know how to watch this movie.....damn, I can't believe I saw it so many times and only now have the Eyes to see and the ears to hear.

Even movies I don't like I really enjoy your videos about them. I liked thos movie though

The best line in the movie “That’s no dog!”
