RE: The Thing From Another World.....remake

The 1981 film is closer to the original John W. Campbell story Who Goes There? (from the Aug. '38, Astounding Stories pulp). It's just my 2 cents, but I think John Carpenter's film a bona fide SF classic, arguably more horrific and atmospheric than the loose adaptation of Campbell's story from '51. Other's mileage may vary.

Who knows what the new film will look like, but my expectations for prequels are pretty low.
