New Banner for THE THING Prequel

The new banner for The Thing prequel looks very familiar. It is has the same look and feel as the original John Carpenter film. It doesn't look like Universal will be changing the title either. They do have a new tag line though that reads, "Before it was unleashed, it was discovered." I hope this ends up being good, from what I've heard there's a lot of practical effects being used on the film, which would be a fresh of breath air since all we see these days is CGI blood and gore.

Paranoia spreads like an epidemic among a group of researchers as they’re infected, one by one, by a mystery from another planet. Paleontologist Kate Lloyd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) has traveled to the desolate region for the expedition of her lifetime. Joining a Norwegian scientific team that has stumbled across an extraterrestrial ship buried in the ice, she discovers an organism that seems to have died in the crash eons ago. But it is about to wake up. When a simple experiment frees the alien from its frozen prison, Kate must join the crew’s pilot, Carter (Joel Edgerton), to keep it from killing them off one at a time. And in this vast, intense land, a parasite that can mimic anything it touches will pit human against human as it tries to survive and flourish.
