I've only covered Matthijs van Heijningen's prequel to John Carpenter's classic The Thing a couple of times, because there are plenty of sites out there giving it press, but when some supposed creature shots appeared online...I just had to show them! Especially since so much has been made about the Special Effects, and whether or not they can live up to Rob Bottin's show stopping creature effects...
The following images came from the unofficial Facebook page for Universal's forthcoming The Thing, and according to bloody-disgusting.com, Universal has already stated that they have NOTHING to do with the production...
Whether they do or not, there's no denying how cool they are, so check them out below, and we'll see when the film opens October 14th...

Those truly are horrifying. I'm worried the new Thing film will be a sloppy action-fest without the thoughtful terror so well executed in Carpenter's version. But if those are, in fact, some of the incarnations shown in the feature, then at least it shows creative promise.
