Admittedly The Thing was itself a remake of The Thing, but still...

In the original The Thing, there was a Norwegian base which had been 'Thinged' before the US base. This is about what happens when you release an alien among a load of mad Scandiwegians.

So we get to see what happened in their base? The finding of the spacecraft and the guy who sliced his wrists open etc? Could be very good if done by someone that's not utterly fucking clueless.

with great sadness I agree. :(
Although as far as The Thing remakes go, I'm still rather fond of my own: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KrdTx6u0ZQ

I have been putting off watching that one. I love early Carpenter. He lost me with the vampires film. Such a massive shame.
What the hell happened to him? and same goes for Romero, Landis and a lot more. Such a shame.
