| - Man-Thing is a 2005 horror movie based on the Marvel comicbook. It was directed by Brett Leonard. The film starts with one Kyle Roberts arriving the town of Bywater to be its new sheriff. He then starts investigating the deaths in the swamp near it, which all seem to be linked to the Schist Petroleum oil rig nearby. It seems that the company's wrongdoings in the area has awakened its guardian... There was also a three-part tie-in comicbook series released in 2004.
