New poster for 'The Thing' reboot!

Universal Pictures' "The Thing" reboot is set for release Oct. 14, 2011, and here is the brand new poster for the horror flick, which Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. directed. Looks interesting for sure, so check it out in full after the jump.

The plot? At an Antarctica research site, the discovery of an alien craft leads to a confrontation between graduate student Kate Lloyd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and scientist Dr. Sander Halvorson (Ulrich Thomsen).

Co-starring in "The Thing" are Eric Christian Olsen, Joel Edgerton, Ulrich Thomsen and Kim Bubbs. The film is described as a reimagining of "The Thing from Another World" and John Carpenter's "The Thing." Let's hope it will deliver some scares.
