The question now is this. Can The Thing v.3 be as equally successful at the movie theater and get some good reviews in addition? Is the third time a charm or not? Well, the answer to this question remains to be seen, because the movie was recently released and this is something that only time will tell. This new science fiction horror film has all the markings of good scary horror one must admit. Also, since it is a prequel to John Carpenter’s The Thing, this means it has its own unique story to reveal to movie goers who wish to see it for themselves. This newer version was just released to movie theaters in the United States on October 14, 2011.

The critic reviews for The Thing v.3 are mixed and this translated means that there are mixed reactions about it. Some people are comparing it to John Carpenter’s The Thing and others are not feeling so hot about it as a movie. Is the third time around for The Thing a charm? Only individual movie goers can make this decision for themselves after seeing it for themselves. For some, it works as a scary and effective movie, while others are not that taken with it to be honest.

Movies are in the eye of the beholder and the heart/mind. We either like them or we do not. I think this new release falls into we either like it or we do not. It is something that must be left open to personal like and what not.

Beginning with “Carrie” in 1973, Stephen King began his story writing empire. The book was later made into a major motion picture which is still popular today.

Whether you read King’s stories or not, his movies are always worth watching. If you do read the books, you will notice as you watch the films that the cast of people seem to have been the exact characters he was writing about.Get more information here. http://www.slashfilm.com/ben-affleck-direct-stephen-kings-stand/ In certain cases, he does have someone in mind as he writes. But for the most part, the actors and actresses just fit into the story line so perfectly.

Some of his most famous titles include “Cujo”, “The Stand”, “Misery”, and “The Shawshank Redemption”. His next novel appears in November, titled “11/22/63″ and following the story of a man who embarks on a mission to return to the past and prevent the death of JFK. He also has the movie version of “Bag of Bones” airing on television in December.

The last real big budget adaptation was in the 1990′s with Gary Oldman as the vampire. The first appearance was the unauthorized silent film NOSFERATU in 1922. And, of course, most people will note that the two most popular Draculas in film history were Bela Lugosi and Christopher Lee. To list all the Dracula actors and adaptations would take volumes. And even if you did compile such a list, there would be scores more names to add to it as the character is always tapped to appear in films.

Now, the newer comic book inspired vampires are depicted as apex predators which huge rows of teeth.Get more information here. http://www.livescience.com/16332-teen-vampire-werewolf-murder.html That creates a massive bite. However, such vampires still only drink blood. A werewolf not only has the same huge rows of teeth but also a much longer, elongated jaw. Again, the werewolf’s purpose is to consume and not to drain a victim so it will bite, and bite, and eventually eat its prey. Wolves are not bloodsuckers. They are carnivores

That is the forensics discussion. In terms of motion picture box office grosses, the vampire certainly has the bigger movie bite. Sure, there have been some great werewolf movies over the years but they just don’t live up to the ticket sales of the great (and some not so great) vampire films.
