In this sequence it looks to me like Ford is either trembling with terror or having somekind of fit. If you take a closer look at whatever it is coming for her it looks large and has a humanoid hand. Would a fellow mutated crewmen inspire that much fear??? This thign has got to be seriously scary!!
Also reminds me of Alien where Lambert freezes in terror!

I believe that it has a form of mind control perhaps and causing her to go into convulsions or they forget to turn the heat up. She's paralyzed by fear, I have seen that happen in people when I was in the military...

I'm a fairly large fella, but if a 13-foot tall blue dude stepped out of the shadows in my direction and I was millions of miles from home?
I might "twitch" a bit at the event... Would you?

I would be pissing my pants man....probably thinking, why did I have to volunteer for this???

I kind of thought she might be another android. Maybe a new model like ash that they are testing on the crew. Weyland does that kind of stuff.. She has a unique look to her and didn't Ash act a bit spastic too?

I'm thinking she is either about to be squashed, or is wetting that cool blue suit at that moment.
Or maybe both in the opposite order...

The person to Ford's right (our left) appears to be raising a weapon. And at the very end of the clip, they appear to sharply move to the left (the character's right) in a strange way. I don't know if it's how the clip ends or the panning in that makes it look like that... without more of the clip, it's difficult to say with any certainty.

Didn't she say in an interview that she was only in it for a while before being eaten by a skeletal figure?
March 22, 2012
Kronik both great parts of the "interview" and the "skeletal mostruosities" plot were totally fake , and there is no more any kind of doubts about that .
Of course i think she will not last much in the movie :p ...
BTW i hope there is not any kind of "mind control" .... already abused theme that is not scary at all

I'm with you on that Frantz. I find the idea of mind control to be a bit lame to say the least. I much prefer the idea of a creature that causes you to s**t yourself on site :-).

what the thing in the left of the pic the guy i duking from?
1 and 2 had a race 1 1 1 and 2 11 2. gigity

The previous comment got me thinking... maybe the "thing" isn't going after Ford, rather reaching for the guy on the left and he has to duck? Although I think way the hand moves and his "ducking" look odd if that's what's going on, but without more of the clip, it's difficult to say anything with certainty.

I also think the character is paralyzed by fear and that she is not having some kind of fit or that her thoughts are being controlled by the Space Jockey. I believe that the crew has been trained to deal with dangerous situations , so they wouldn't have a fit. But nothing could prepare them for what they would find. The SJ controlling her thoughts sounds a bit cheap (no offense). I definitely hope that's not the case.
You don\\\'t see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage!

@astubbindeck - awesome picutre.
Wasn't this done in Alien Resurrection: the Newborn turning Distephano head into mush. I'd sooner see less gore than more. I always found Lambert's death the most disturbing as you never see what is done to her.

I think something ..with a human hand ..is walking toward the helpless ford ...while the other guy is trying to stop him ....

I agree with @astubbindeck, Big Blue guy is offended by Ford's Playmobil haircut, and is about to Fashion-police her gourd.
