The prequel to The Thing is getting closer. And this new red band trailer gives us more of an idea of what to expect...
A couple of weeks ago, we ran a piece looking at whether CG monsters had ever actually been scary. The thrust of the article was that it was practical effects, rather than computer-generated ones, that seemed to have the most tangible impact.
Which brings us nicely to the new film of The Thing. Set before John Carpenter’s 80s classic, a film that still retains its ability to get under your skin and chill your bones, a fresh trailer for the new movie has just appeared. It’s a red band trailer, so no peeking you’re under 18 or anything like that. And it does highlight the new, less interesting reliance on computers to make its monster.
The movie arrives in October in the US, although it’s a month and a half after that before it first appears in the UK. And you can see the new trailer, courtesy of IGN, right here.
