The Thing Returns

A group of explorers from Mcmurdo station go to outpost 31, only to discover the two dead bodies on ice of last survivors from the original movie, then the nightmare begins, the thing still lives and starts to take over their base, killing and assimilating all the crew, and it´s up to two guys to stop it.

The "scientific" aspect is better than previous films, for me this sequel is great and equal to the first ''The thing'' it has more blood and gore, the story is fast paced, The CGI is not that great, but they used practical effects too. The alien scenes are scary, so I wouldn't complain about that.

It exists as a worthy extension, not an insult to the memory of a cult classic. It offers a similar overall experience without replicating styles and situations.

This is sequel very well done, with lots of pratical effects trough, most people don´t realize that this is a fan film, because of all the people and budget putted into this, i saw an interview with the director on a you tube channel, were he explains, the love he has for the franchise.

For me it was a pleasant surprise what i´ve got here, the rating of this movie, should be around 7, not 6.0.

The first 35 minutes were simply boring...then the gore begins...just globs of crawling goo, a humanoid-like figure here and there, lots of blood and guts. There is little to no similarity to the original "The Thing", No sense of anything with a plot., the acting is 3 on a scale of 1-10. I would recommend not wasting your time. Don't make me tell you, "I told you so".... PASS.....

The plot is very well made, as it's up to the audience to figure out the mystery of who got infected, no cliches at all.

The acting is outstanding as well, and doc is one hell of a character, great performance, i´ll will keep an eye on this guy´s career, from now on.

Partially based on H. P Lovecrafts mountains of madness this movie is everything I wanted.

The way this story unfolds is so organic, and on a perfect pace.

Has an easter egg of Alien Perfect 8.

I´ve watched it two times already, and it´s really good.

Packed with suspicion, survival instincts, betrayal, fear, doubt and more.

It consistently switched between action, mystery, horror, and discovery.

Great scares, fulfilling characters, solid story, a developed plot, this movie is great.

On a final note, this film has some great cinematography.

The Thing Returns is a good film, you should watch it.
