FaceHuggers
Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien Resurrection
Lego Facehugger? I'm sold.
The term has been coined and used by fans of the Alien films for obvious reasons. A facehugger is the second stage in the alien’s life cycle. It has eight long finger-like legs which allow it to crawl rapidly, and a long tail adapted for making great leaps. What is more terrifying than a creepy legged slimy creature that attacks your face, impregnates you with it’s evil seed, and death will come either by removing it from your face, or by the Alien growing inside you. The idea of the terrifying creature moving with rapid speed to deliver it’s slow paced death is the inspiration of nightmares to haunt you forever.
It's love and reproduction at first kiss!
Do You Like This Monster? Rate it!
OM NOM NOM NOM comes to mind! What’s the inspiration behind those things anyway. Kinda looks like when the head grows legs in The Thing and a jellyfish mixed together.
I have nothing to add, just repetitive laughter!
I love those. I call them headcrabs from the game Half Life where they would jump in your face out of nowhere. They took it one step further with people who got facehugged becoming zombies!!! Awesome beast.
They are so simple, yet so creepy!
Facehuggers for life!
Don’t forget these baddies were in the dreadful AVP movies:(
Great topic for the post Heather. What offsets the creepiness of the face huggers is that sweet scene where Hicks and Hudson rescue Ripley with their pulse rifles a blazin’!! Great now I gotta watch this tonight:)
Lastly, just a small heads up, the Ripley figure is a Kubrick. Very popular figurines from Japan. http://www.kubrickfigures.info/category/43590316681/1/Alien-Kubrick-Figures.htm.
You know, just in case the toy police come a knockin:)
Uggh. I try not to acknowledge the existence of those awful AVP movies, but what can I do?
Thanks for the comment, ALIENS is my favorite movie of all time.
