    I'd rather get fingerbanged by Wilford Brimley.

    Not horrible.

      Yeah. Kind of like the fact they've kept to using mostly unknown weegies for the victims.

      That way I won't feel bad when they turn into giant spiky maws of an alien hell.

        I see potential good. Trailer did a good job of making me want more.

          I got an Alien sort of vibe from the final scene.

          The lighting, the drop of the soundtrack to only MEW's breathing, and the sort of dark/wet/steam aesthetic of the corridor.

          All of it kind of gave me an acid flashback to Ellen Ripley's Funhouse.

          Granted, it was very quick and therefore robbed of its potential in a teaser, but that snippet won me over.

            I really dig the call back to the Morricone score. That was awesome.

            Does anyone want to go see this with me? Cause I aint going with Windows, that's for damn sure.

              Yeah, this seems like it might be good for some scares, if not totally derivative of the original. Think it was /film that said how can you not think this is a remake, because how much can you do with such a confined movie. Regardless, Edgerton should be good, and Miss Winstead owns my heart so I'll check it out.

                Yep, I'm going for the Winstead, staying for the alien horror hijinks. Slashfilm nailed the general gist of this flick for me, though - I'd have thought it a remake as opposed to a prequel based on the trailer, with MEW taking on the Kurt Russel role.

                  The one issue I have is with that obviously CG face-split shot.

                  I really hope for a practical effects orgy, but fear the ease of execution in CG being too attractive to pass up for the parties involved.

                  Anyway, I'll see it because I have an (Tuck) Everlasting boner for MEW and the basic desert island, marooned murder mystery guest-starring chameleonic alien lifeforms aspect.

                    Poll is flawed, there's no option for I WANT to get fingerbanged by Wilford Brimley AND find this intredasting.

                        Will see this, no matter what. The Thing is on my top 5 ever.

                          But what of those who want both RUSS?

                            You can't have both. It was a magical night of enchantment that will never happen again.
