What the frills is that?
Apparently down in the sewers of North Carolina they’re breeding baby Jabba the huts.
**Update – A commenter named Mark thinks it’s a rectal exam and we think that is correct. Sorry Mark
Scully chimes in with the correctness
“This is a colony of Tubifex worms. They live in sediment, eat bacteria, and are used as fish food in pet stores.”

It looks like the alien from the final stage of Contra.

I’d like to look in to this a little more to be sure that a) Its not fake and b) Its not something as yet undiscovered. But my first thought is that it may be some species of slime mold, something common to the South and pretty much harmless.
On the other hand it DOES resemble something from a Capcom game.

Clearly a viral, a very good viral but a viral none the less. surely the holding page gave the game away?
It’s promoting the sequel the a Japanese horror flick called The Host

Which was obviously taken down at the studios request, but none the less it’s a nice bit of work!
Surely someone noticed the wiki links were all last updated the day the video appeared?
