L. Marcus Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Re: Alien comet infiltrates solar system . . . I vaguely recall a sci-fi movie from when I was a kid, about astronauts exploring a comet and accidentally waking the interstellar vampires inside.

L. Marcus Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Re: Alien comet infiltrates solar system It does indeed. I've never seen it, though. Sounds like a good B-movie, even if it has Patrick Stewart in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyrath Posted December 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Re: Alien comet infiltrates solar system It was a B-movie. For me the only high point was Mathilda May walking around starkers through most of the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyrath Posted December 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 Re: Alien comet infiltrates solar system Comet Machholz 1 or Mathilda May? Mathilda May, actually. I take it you haven't seen the movie. Go to Google Image Search, turn off SafeSearch, and do a search on "Lifeforce" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basil Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Re: Alien comet infiltrates solar system Hmmm... Not the most convincing argument for extra-solar origin. OTOH, if one just assumes it---or another comet---is extra-solar, one can come up with a sizable number of scenarios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
