All you tentacle counting people - count this!

Looks like just one tentacle to me, but definitely like some kind of "mini-facehugger" as you've described...This image brings to mind one of the stories from the Animatrix animated film(the one with the Private investigator).

Man, that's disgusting. I would recommend Bausch and Lomb Eye Wash Solution.

Another Giger image? Is that his liver...? [img]http://www.heyuguys.co.uk/images/2012/04/Prometheus-2.jpg[/img]

mini facehugger! get real...

Now I watch that again and again - and again - as a .gif, I can really focus on just how disgusting that little beast really is - and also on what an outstanding little piece of CGI I'm looking at. That thing looks no less real than the lashes on his lids, or that water drop running down his nose - its "tail" is even disturbing the light reflecting from the liquid in the outside corner of his inner eye - (just before it drains/dries out, just a little- of course...) - and the soft, slight shadow it's casting on his eyeball is exactly right... I'm having to remind myself that thing isn't real.

@Nephilim idk about the human/sj part of the image but the darker part resembles a Giger drawing listed here [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/3269]Your text to link here...[/url] Labeled "Primative Creature"

OH NO!!! its a new thing we've never seen before.....................................It's......................an EYE HUGGER!!! ---AHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!

I'm impressed that NoxWord found the same background images in the "ceiling man" and in Giger's Alien Lifecycle...Well Done...that took a bit of work...!!!

Flush for 15 mins , no more no less i guess this was after him and Shaw went at it

Man that thing just makes me want to grab some tweezers and pull. It looks like a little squirmy snake that you can pull out but obviously its burrowing. Man I'm getting migraines just thinking about what its doing inside his head.

IT IS TRULY DISGUSTING! and creepy, given the facts that we know about the genre already, to start from something that small and invasive.

Awwww...look at us...gettin' all nostalgic like with our weirdedoutness......so cute...

hay , my wife just looked at the picture and she is not going nw , after i told her there is a love story in it

Doesn't look like a comfortable situation, that's for sure! A micro-organism capable of changing you? Ouch. Reminds me of the ceti eel from Star Trek! Creepie-tastic! lol

When I saw the white slithering thing in the "leaked trailer" and crewman using flamethrowers casually in the loading dock, I thought it might be some small, indigenous life-form that becomes mixed up in the SJ tech by human error. Maybe they're just testing those flamethrowers, and not eliminating vermin.....but I'm curious to find out one way or the other. One thing's for sure, there's a heck of a lot going on in this movie. A[i] lot[/i] more than in "Alien." IMO, this is shaping up to be a very ballsy, ambitious piece.

Artyoh, I agree. Also, it's an idea of mine that all creatures big and small may live on this planet that have nothing to do with our prior understanding of xenos etc... If I were on crew it would be expected to encounter some creatures!

It's a Mini-Facehugger used to change an individual at the celullar level!

Sorry about your wife nc1701, tell her it's all over now, and then show her [url=http://www.heyuguys.co.uk/images/2012/04/Prometheus-Cinemagraph-3.gif]this[/url]... lol Where's my Restasis ! "The most common side effect is a temporary burning sensation. Other side effects include eye redness, discharge, watery eyes, eye pain, foreign body sensation, itching, stinging, and blurred vision. " Y'think?

Poor Holloway.....sorry guys, but I like him.

Not a mini facehugger, but a tiny, little alien!!!! Really, check it out closely. The long thing wiggling around is the tail of the alien, you can see it trying to swing it and stab his eye. You can also notice the top portion looks like an alien head turning to the side. I'm serious, look at it for a while and you can see it, you can even kind of make out the mid section as the body. It's an ALIEN!!!! Can anyone see it?

sorry lv426 , i got stairing at the Promethues ship in the other post YA l`m going to put the pic you sent on here lap top sreen saver , she`ll love it

Sorry, can't see it.

I wonder if it falls into their eye when they look up at the ceiling changing?

Who knows.....whether they're set up as part of a trap by the SJs, or if the place is simply infested with them.......maybe the Sjs weren't quite the masters they thought themselves to be, and their own tech got the best of them.

Shilliam, you're cheating, how did you know the squirmy worm things are in the ceiling and the Giger Alien Life cycle...? [img]http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/5968/gigersalienlifecyclevsp.png[/img] Thanks to [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/3269]KnoxWord[/url] for this image! That will teach you not to wear your helmet while looking up !

They must get into the blood stream and lay their larva that get in their cells (reproductive?) and start the transformation genetically. "As they wrap their selves around the cerebral cortex and grow....... follows madness". Oh wait, I was thinking Khan from Star Trek 2. Never mind.

An "eye-hugger" ?

"Big Things Have small Beginnings" !!! [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v234/LT.HIGHTIMES/1a1bigthing.jpg[/img]

Hi all, The scary thing is that these types of things do exist. I know a lady who lived in Kenya and woke up with an itchy eye. She took a look in the mirror and could see small worms wriggling around in her eye... Makes me shudder when i think about it...

Bausch and Lomb? More like Ouch and Oom! Anyway, really beautifully done CGI.
