Thing, The

 

USA 2011, 103 minutes
Dir. Matthijs van Heijningen Jr.
Rating: [R16]
Genres: Science Fiction, Horror / Invaders

 

Aroview: A fairly perfunctory, though by no means terrible prequel to John Carpenter's sci-fi classic, centred on a young paleontologist (Winstead) recruited to investigate a long-frozen UFO discovered by Norwegian scientists on an Antarctic base. Thankfully, the practical creature effects (with CGI augmentation) and chilly claustrophobia of the original are for the most part retained and deployed with aplomb.
