The Thing
($34.98 Blu-Ray, $29.98 DVD, Universal)
A prequel to John Carpenter’s amazing, gooey sci-fi classic (itself a re-imagining of a 50s monster movie), director Matthijs van Heijningen Jr’s movie fills in some story gaps for horror nerds—and packs a few scares—but there’s nothing really new and waaay too much CGI. DVD extras include deleted/extended scenes, a couple of featurettes and a commentary with Van Heijningen, who doesn’t say anything like “here’s where we bastardized what made Carpenter’s film so memorable.”
