They live among us (2) - The sandworm of Dune
Had a good ponder? Me too.
In case you missed it, the starting point was the realism of aliens in fiction, whether wargames, cinema or literature. The whole thing was set off by our new friend, the squid worm. The question was how the preoccupation of the moment might mean we make the alien less realistic.
Let's start with a biggie, Dune by Frank Herbert, and the sandworms. Look away now if you're squeamish - the film version is definitely not for you.
I was grinning by the final shot. Remember, it is a David Lynch film...
