After what seems like forever, The Thing remake trailer has officially made its way to the internet. I think I’m on the fence about this simply because I love the Carpenter film so much; I just think there is no reason to see a group of Norwegians go through the same “Thing” as MacReady’s crew….but after seeing the trailer it seems as though Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. is keeping the faith right down to the Dean Cundey framing and lighting. I’m just hoping for this not to suck. If I can sit through it without getting mad I will give it my stamp of approval.
