Spaceship Crash countries on earth many years ago and is buried in Antarctic ice. It is a creature on board. Modern scientists dig up a creature, thaw it and find out too late that he is still alive - and have the power to mimic all forms of life. Desire to live and grow, is insatiable. It begins to assume the identities of researchers have isolated Antarctic research station. The crucial question is: Who is the real, and this is the case? The original story was called "Who's there?" It 'written by John W. Campbell, Jr., at the end of 1930, and offered the story so strong and scary that he has inspired at least four versions of the film before that: the original story in 1951, an attack Body Snatchers in 1956 and in 1978, Allen in 1979 and now, a remake of John Carpenter in 1982, again called The Thing.
I mention the previous incarnations of himself, not to show my proficiency pay Companion of the film, but to suggest several approaches to this material. Both versions 1950, especially Body Snatchers, was seen at the time as fables based on McCarthyism, Communists, as victims of the Thing, then, sounded and acted like your best friend, but they were infected with a deadly secret. ALIEN, placed on a spacecraft, but with the same condition, less attention to "Who's there?" Idea and Special Effects: Do not forget that the creature bit of trouble, which broke the Astronaut in the stomach? Now comes this detailed version of John Carpenter, a master of suspense (Halloween). The trick depends on its special effects, which are among the most comprehensive sites, foul and horrible yet reached by the new generation Hollywood visual wizards.
Case is a great barf-bag movie is good, but it's good? I found it disappointing, for two reasons: the shallow characterizations and implausible behavior of scientists outpost of the ice. The characters have never been the strength Carpenter says he likes movies, create feelings of his audience, and I assume that he would rather see us jump six inches to interfere in the personality of his characters. This time, however, despite the rough outside, and not very reliable typecasting stereotypes (drunken, psycho, the hero), he lived in his station ice with people whose main purpose in life is to get jumped from behind. Some scenes that develop the characterizations are overwhelmed by the scenes in which men are the only thing configurations attack.
This brings us to another issue of credibility. We know that the thing is just like waiting indicator, and then pounce, digest, and to imitate him - at which point you will see a new Doc, Doc is still, or is it? Well, a clear protection against this problem is water resistant to a boy system, but from time to time, Carpenter allows his characters to wander alone and returned to the silly grins on their faces, until we lost a number of which may have an infection, and who is not. It takes away from the fun.
The thing is basically, it's just a geek show, gross-out movie, where teenagers can dare each other to see on the screen. There is nothing wrong with that, I like being afraid, and afraid of many scenes in the thing. But it seems clear that Carpenter has made his choice from the beginning to focus on special effects and technology and provide the history and people become secondary. Since this material has been done before and better, especially in the original thing, and with strangers, there is no reason to watch this version, unless you're interested in what the thing seems from extrusion anonymous giant fat bodies crab legs and transform into a dog. Incredibly, I bet that thousands if not millions of moviegoers interested in seeing this.
There are times when we seem to be sticking his head into the blood, stinking mouth of the unknown, the thing is transformed into beings with body parts of dogs, humans, lobsters and spiders, all wrapped in the intestines sticky.
