Antarctica: an extraordinary continent of awesome beauty. It is also home to an isolated outpost where a discovery full of scientific possibility becomes a mission of survival when an alien is unearthed by a crew of international scientists. The shape-shifting creature, accidentally unleashed at this marooned colony, has the ability to turn itself into a perfect replica of any living being. It can look just like you or me, but inside, it remains inhuman.
In the thriller The Thing, paranoia spreads like an epidemic among a group of researchers as they’re infected, one by one, by a mystery from another planet. The Thing serves as a prelude to John Carpenter’s classic 1982 film of the same name. Directed by Matthijs van Heijningen, the thriller is produced by Strike Entertainment’s Marc Abraham and Eric Newman (Dawn of the Dead).
That's right...you know right time it is!

ReplyDeleteAny Vin Diesel movie would be greatly improved if he were to be replaced by Jack Burton from Big Trouble in Little China. Why? Does Vin Diesel really need a reason???
ReplyDeleteANY Period Drama (i.e. Stuff like Jane Austen) would be better with the inclusion of Snake Plissken. If only he weren't dead. Because any movie would be better with Snake Plissken. And period dramas suck the most.
ReplyDeleteJack Burton from Big Trouble In Little China in Sex and the city. Jack burton - "I made the right choice hiting the road on the porkchop express" after seeing how kim cattral turned out. "Ill take my chances with Lo pans monster". Pork chop express theme plays for no reason other then to highlight how awesome it is when Jack Burton speaks.
ReplyDeleteDie Hard,Bruce Willis I reckon it would be rather interesting to see what the outcome would be.
ReplyDeleteSnake Plissken as a bounty hunter in Star Wars episode 1, sent to kill Anakin Skywalker before Mr. Lucas could turn him into a whiny little shite.
ReplyDeleteHow about Kurt Russell INSTEAD of Rowdy Roddy Piper in They Live? 'I am here to chew gum and kick ass. And I'm aaall outta gum.' Kurt coulda sold that line. Oh yes.
