I escaped into the waves. The waves...
I went Underground!

I'm just back from the wonders of the search bar and it appears no one has posted a thread like this, yet.

I was watching John Carpenter's The Thing again last week, and the image of a Flickta flashed into my mine when the guy's chest ripped open.

Pics or it didn't happen:
Flickta

Flickta again.

The Thing


Never really occured to me until now recently how similair the Flickta are to the creature in that scene. Your thoughts on this?
