From TMP:
While remakes, re-imaginings, and prequels to older films are generally regarded by the mainstream public to be anything from greedy filmmaker missteps to outright cinematic sacrilege, I was for one thrilled to hear about a prequel to John Carpenter's 1982 horror classic The Thing being developed. Several years later, horror fans can now rejoice as Carpenter's horrific, shape-shifting monstrosity has finally returned in all it's terrifying glory.
