Today Universal Pictures has released a new restricted trailer for their upcoming redux of The Thing. You can watch the video below this article.
The trailer runs a little over a minute in length but features a lot of previously unseen footage, including a long-awaited peek at the alien creatures that will be giving our characters the fight of their lives. The monsters look to have been created through a combination of practical effects and CGI, with a little too much emphasis on the latter. Some of the effects look appropriately freaky and cool but it will be all for naught if the rest of the film isn’t up to snuff. Still, this sucker might be worth a watch after all.
The Thing was directed by Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. from a screenplay by Eric Heisserer and stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Joel Edgerton, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Ulrich Thomsen, and Eric Christian Olsen. It opens on October 14, 2011.
