Doesn't Carpenter's Classic take more from that book Who Goes There? I'm not sure if that's the correct book but I remember watching the director's commentary and the mention of a book popped up. I remember the original in clips and pieces. Thing from Another World? Is that the name of it?

Timeline here we go

1. Who Goes There - book from the 30's
2. Thing From Another World -movie from the 50's
3. The Thing- movie from the 80's
4. The Thing Video Game - video game that is kind of an unofficial sequel to the film from the 80's
5. The Thing (prequel) - movie (current) that shows the events at the Norweigen camp
6. Bah, I would like to see a true sequel. Don't tar and feather me here but a true sequel where the alien gets to a city or something could be epic and down right disgusting...
