Carpenter's made some fun films. The Thing is one of my favorite movies. I have it on my DVR and watch it about once every month or so. It is so well done.

The Thing is one of my all time favorites, but come on, Ghosts of Mars doesn't hold up to anything but itself being utter crap. Never cared for The Fog either.

I still want to know if one of them was contaminated.....the world may never know...

Here is a write up on a one time proposal for a direct sequel to The Thing as a miniseries on Sci-fi

http://coronacomingattractions.com/news/exclusive-look-return-thing-screenplay

doesn't seem like utter crap and the thing found a way to fool the blood test.

the write-up is rather spoilerish but the last act isn't revealed just in case.


.....

To be done right either Starz, HBO or Showtime need to do it. Maybe AMC, but I'd rather see it on something where it can be R rated.

Since that was put out in 2009..I have to imagine it's never going to happen.
