This The Thing is briskly paced and believable as a prequel to John Carpenter's film. Development of the franchise's mythology like the underground spaceship attempting to take off is something of a mistake. The mysteriousness of the first film is certainly part of its charm, so making such a bold choice to demystify the creature's origins should work better. Still, this is sufficiently creepy. It just makes you appreciate Carpenter's version more.
