  how the creature wiped out the first guys at the outpost. Basically, a repeat, a set piece. Stock characters, separate during crisis, get attacked one by one, etc. Not much leeway possible. One good thing: it's made me put both earlier ones into my Netflix list.
  Again, the lack of imagination is stunning. Perhaps "Oliver Twist" the prequel would be better?

    Ah, so you do remember there was something that happened between the ship crashing and the begining of the 1982 movie.

    Whose lack of imagination? You are the one claiming not much leeway possible. You don't really know though do you? You *may* be right but you *may* be wrong.
    
    
    I like to form my opinions on movies AFTER I see them not before.
