Yes, exactly! That's what bothers me so much about the Alien movies. Bleccccch. Give me Predator any day. He rocks; he looks like a heavy-metal dude on steroids.

I always thought he looked like a humanoid scorpion from a death metal video.

I actually like the Alien films because of the squick factor! When you read some of the behind-the-scenes notes about what Geiger was trying to make it all look like, that just makes it all more perverse!

I wonder how head crabs (Half Life) would work. It leaves you aware of everything that's going on but not in control. Your body is mostly dead,but you're walking around in one of these things only able to scream backwards (the cries of those with a head crab are reveresed for some reason)

*shrugs* Depends on the parts of the brain the crab is feasting on. The screams were probably done by the game's audio mixer guy for creep factor.

Crossing my fingers in hope that the prequel will not suck[1] like the black hole at the center of our galaxy.

[1] Yes, I know its bad science.

Oh, I'm sure it will. The script has some intriguing ideas, but seems a little... lacking.

I thought the black hole was a foregone conclusion. *shrugs*

When they attach to the body they spread everywhere essentially making you have living body armor. Though bane needed to use a special helmet to keep them from spreading to his head and feet or else he would have died. They feed off the dark side, but at the same time enhance your force powers. They cause your body to be in constant pain, but that is also helpful since it helps a dark jedi feed off that anger.


Didn't he eventually have to ditch that armor, though?
