Screenhead (Free subscription) | 02/09/2010

Two actors, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Joel Edgerton, are all set to star in The Thing. Universal’s next version of the shape-shifting alien who terrorizes a group of people in a remote facility. I loved the other two versions. The 1982 John Carpenter-Kurt Russell cult movie is the most popular of the two. The 1951 The [...]

Mary Elizabeth Winstead Joins 'The Thing' Prequel

Get the Big Picture (Free subscription) | 02/08/2010

It's not a remake - rather a prequel - to The Thing , which itself...was a remake. Sorry if that's confusing. The John Carpenter film from the early 1980s, one of the most underrated sci-fi/horror combos there is (and one of the greatest remakes period) will serve as the foundation for a film that right now we're just calling The Thing . After all, Prequel to The Thing sounds a bit silly. Universal...

'The Thing' Remake Casts Joel Edgerton and Mary Elizabeth Winstead

Cinematical (Free subscription) | 02/08/2010

Some call it a remake, some call it a prequel, I call it a really slippery slope: Universal is planning another film in the (sorta) series that began in 1951 with The Thing (from Another World) and continued in 1982 with John Carpenter's The Thing . JC's remake was not exactly adored upon its theatrical release, but it has since gone on to become a true classic of the genre ... for those who have...

Scott Pilgrim star finds role in The Thing remake

Major Spoilers (Free subscription) | 02/08/2010

I’m not a fan of remaking a movie, unless the next person up can do a better job than the one previously. John Carpenter did an excellent job back in 1982 with his remake of the 1951 “The Thing from Another World,” and it’s held up really well over the years. However, H’wood being H’wood, [...]
