Description
Well thanks to my wife's squeamishness and our travel schedule I totally missed Prometheus in the theaters. Yet thanks to Fox's PR dept I got to watch the movie on the TV with all the promotional spots, the trailers, and Youtube. Doing a quick search on Youtube I found the final scene I needed to get a look at the Trilobite or proto-facehugger's attack on the Jockey Pilot. If you're screaming spoilers and looking at this then I don't know what to tell you but Hah hah. (insert Nelson laugh there.)I can see why the Hammerpede Alien concept got praise over the this. But you got remember the FaceHugger on it's own is a pretty terrifying beast and one the size of a horse can be outright mind numbing and something had to save Shaw or the Earth would've got gooed. So I can see the writer and director's necessary thoughts on our friend here. Well this is the last one I'm drawing till Prometheus 2 which was announced a couple days ago. So I don't even know why I care, I'll end up being forced to miss out on that one as well, crap...

i think john hurt was lucky to get hugged by a little one in alien rather than one of those giant octopus things.

Besides the ghastly fate it guarantees, the Hugger's most terrifying aspect (in my book, anyhow) involves its penchant for concealment in sequel-convenient nooks & crannies. Send the Queen on a one-way spacewalk, nuke the nests from orbit, but there's always one of these scuttling esophagus-molesters left lying up in a vent for the second your guard finally drops.
As for scaling 'em up...well, if it makes taking 'em down (or hauling ass for an airlock) that much tougher, I suppose that balances out its inability to pop outta the janitor's closet like the world's worst birthday surprise. Now I find myself visualizing an encounter 'tween Proto-Hugger & the hybrid from Resurrection. Fun, fun.
