I mean, that reveal at the end (that it's a prequel) is kinda what made the movie worth it for me. Otherwise, knowing that, it's not nearly as enjoyable experience. But more than likely you can watch for free. So, if you like the original, why not?

Damn. The first time I watched the 1982 movie, I watched it with Norwegians. They wanted to be helpful and translated the opening scene. I’m two for two on The Thing spoilers
