I loved the 1982 version. To me it's one of the scariest movies ever made, and one of the best monster movies ever made. "You gotta be fucking kidding me" - LoL!

The 2011 remake (?) is not bad. They used CG instead of real effects for the gore and it kinda fails on 1 level, but on another level the transformations are pretty good.

(Also, I could watch Mary Elizabeth Winstead all day. She purrrdy.)

There was talk about re-releasing the 2011 remake with the original practical gore effects in place but I don't think it ever happened.

There are some fun fan theories about the ending of the 1982 version The Thing.
