Russell skids his car into snowbank, releasing alien invasion in ...Thing Proof.

Nobody really cared that James Arness didn't appear in Carpenter's version. I liked both prior versions, the acting and atmosphere were great. Only thing I didn't like about 'em was the Thing. The first was just a big bald guy(Arness) in murky long shots. The second was a vaselined rubber mess ala Nightmare on Elm Street FX. So I'm not TOO opposed to a remake(or prequel), if the style is close to the 1st 2 with a better creature.
