Title: Unknown Origin
Post by: Andrew on May 10, 2003, 12:47:44 PM
The latest review is posted.  This movie really annoys me.  That is on account of it copying "The Thing" so closely, along with healthy amounts from the "Alien" franchise.

Hell yeah, I hate unknown origin, just by checking out the clip, it's a bloody insult! The Thing is the best horror movie i've seen, i wanna kick those s**t heads ass who made unknown origin.

I haven't seen the remake of "The Thing" and I only saw parts of the old B&W version as a kid.

And this movie really annoys me anyway...

Mostly because the 'shock' at the ending basically made the last half of the movie make absolutely no sense.






If the two survivors were really infected then that means there was a point where everyone had been infected and thus no reason for the fight between those 'known' to be infected and those also infected but not yet revealed to the audience

Thank heavens that someone else has seen this.

And yes, the ending is infuriating.

This also looks to be a ripoff of Leviathan, which itself was a ripoff of The Thing and Alien, set on an undersea mining platform.

Nice review, Andrew.  I think I'll just watch THE THING again, thanks.
