"On a rig, everyone can hear you scream"

Films: The Intruder Within (1981)

Alias: None

Type: Ancient

Location: Haunted home

Height/Weight: That of an average human.

Affiliation: Neutral

Summary: Another day, another rip-off of "Alien". But hey, it's not an alien, so that means it's off the hook, right?! Wrong.

History: No one knows what this creature is. All we know is that it predates most life by about millions of years. Its eggs were found by an Arctic rig one day, with one hatching. The beast grew at a rapid rate, and proceeded to murder its way into puberty.

Notable Kills: Nothing special.

Final Fate: The monster is lead to the top of the rig, which is then blown up, with him at the center of the explosion. But there are still those eggs they left behind...

Powers/Abilities: Possession and mind-control.

Weakness: Anything conventional.

Scariness Factor: 3.5-Truth be told, this Xeno-rip-off is not too shabby. It can warp minds, looks like a skinned human, and doesn't give up the chase so easily.

Trivia: -Sometimes people believe that H.R. Giger had a hand in designing the creature. This is not true, as far as we know.

-This film was also known as "Alien Rig" and "The Lucifer Rig".

No worries. We'll just give it the same treatment we gave the alien space carrot that landed in the Antarctic.
He seems almost sure he can survive this movie.
See? The Antarctic incident technique works!
