The Thing

Duration :

103

Summary: Trapped under the ice of Antarctica for centuries--until now. A prequel to John Carpenter's 1982 film "The Thing," this shocker follows a team of scientists investigating a strange discovery in the ice near a remote Norwegian outpost. What they find is terrifying evidence that there is something out there...and it can adapt itself to look like any one of them. Can they identify the shape-shifting monster that walks among them before it can spread to the outside world? Mary Elizabeth Winstead stars as a paleontologist who can handle fossils and a flame-thrower in this horror shocker. Joel Edgarton, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Ulrich Thomsen, Eric Christian Olsen and Trond Espen Seim co-star. Directed by Matthijs van Heijningen Jr.; written by Eric Heisserer, based on the story "Who Goes There?" by John W. Campbell Jr. (R) (AC,AL,BN,V)
