Nope... You just can't recreate this. John Carpenter has put his stamp on what was based off of a classic novella, and what was made in 1982 still holds up. The 2011 prequel tried to live up, but was a CG fest, yet pretty fun to watch. But this, this screams "No" all across the arctic. This Thing (pun intended) needs to be left to freeze for another thousand years or so. Enjoy, y'all.
