    As a creature crash lands in the Irish Sea, a group of fishermen are the first to get got. As one by one they go to check to see whats grabbing the crew mates, they themselves, get grabbed. Eventually, the creature finds itself on wet land in an effort to find females which inadvertendly makes it cross path with humans, as considering some of the Irishmen end up smelling like the female aliens, this may not be ideal. However, humanity has a secret weapon against the alien, and it turns out to be our absolute ability to party. In todays episode, we will discuss where the creature comes from, its internal anatomy and also why humanity could wreck this thing without even trying.

    I love how the original inspiration for this movie was that the director was drinking at a bar, in Australia I believe, and had gotten bitten by a mosquito and he said that he hoped it got wasted and crashed into the wall. That somehow turned into a thought for a vampire movie where the only defense was to get drunk so the vampires would get poisoned and then that somehow turned into space mollusks.
    Also, I believe the 5 protrusions around it's mouth are it's eyes. Kind of like how clams have light sensing spots around it's shell opening.
    Personally, I felt this movie captured the feel of the first Tremors movie. Both movies feel like they could be in the same franchise. Love them both.

    Love this movie. Jolly good fun.
    I reckon the reason the characters being so clueless when it comes to the alien shenanigans is due to a combination of factors.
    1: Aliens do not usually go to Ireland, for obvious reasons.
    2: Irishmen are severely desensitised not only to alcohol, but mortal danger in general.
    3: Between the Faeries, the Rot, the Aliens and the English, Ireland has its hands full at any given moment. You can only care about so much at a time.

    The hand gesture of the crawling hand plopping over like it died was actually something my mom used to do to me when I was little
    She'd have her hand crawl on my head, flop it over and she would say "what's this?"
    And me, a 5 year old- would excitedly say "I dont know!"
    To which she would reply "A Brainsucker starving to Death!"

    At 10 minutes, you said a blood alcohol level of .2 would mean her blood was 20% alcohol. Just a heads up, it'd actually only be 0.2% alcohol by volume. 20% would basically mean your blood itself was liquor.

    • @nicohoffmann6218
      @nicohoffmann6218 2 ปีที่แล้ว +59

      And this should be wrong.
      Alcohol content of blood usually is not measured in percent it's measured in thousandth, therefore 0.2 means 0.02% of the blood is alcohol. Which is usually reached after one beer. Therefore a bit unrealistic depiction in this movie. 0.2% alcohol in blood means totally hammered, with blackouts, 0.4% alcohol in blood usually means death.

A "pidgin" is a sort of amalgam of multiple languages to form a simplified communication system that's used to bridge language barriers between two populations, usually a mix of a native and non native language (typically English).

    EDIT: Also, I love the monster design. Not only is the offspring variant way different and interesting, but the adult has limbs out the wazoo and looks like a runaway pile of octopi. The eyes of every type of the Grabber aliens also remind me of aquatic creatures; eye stalks with very primitive eyes. Mollusks and other shelled critters like sea snails have very similar eyes, which is pretty awesome.

    That situation where the octopus crawls out of the tank and eats other fish is a giant pacific octopus, and it is big. As for the place, it happens at the Seattle Aquarium where they have a big one with tentacles about 10 feet in length last time I saw it 6 years ago.

      I remember reading about that story as well, apparently the octopus was able to memorize the guards Patrol routines and waited for an opening to crawl out of the tank and go to the one across from it and snag some tasty fish. Then it just went and crawled back into its own tank. But the fact that it was smart enough to memorize the guards patrols hints at an alarmingly intelligent being.
      Also, there was another story about an octopus that was getting annoyed at this bright spotlight that was shining into its tank enclosure, so somehow it was able to open its lid and squirt water out of the tank at the light to blow it out. Maintenance kept replacing the bulb wondering what was going on, until they put up a security camera and rewatched the footage, and realized it was the freaking octopus burning out the light with water!

      I do supposed I shouldnt have said I had JUST finished the novels as that sounds like I meant my original trilogy. When, in fact, I had been working on a spin off novel based on the little brother of my main character in the original story when I saw Grabbers on Netflix. So it was probably 2015 when i saw the movie.

The creature goes to the trapped air and dry-ish land in the cave to lay the eggs, and as Enceladus moves around Saturn the tide in these cave would rise and fall, wetting the eggs. As for how they got there, there are MASSIVE ejections of ice and steam and water that rupture out of enceladus constantly, so... yea. any water left at the bottom of the cave (think of this as a moonpool) would freeze solid, preserving anything inside it. And for the lack of eyes, Enceladus is an ice shell moon of saturn. no light ever reaches the interior ocean.

    The fish tank where that happened at was in OR. I'm originally from Oregon, and learned about it in marine biologist class.
    I'm fairly certain it was the Newport aquarium. It was a particular female Pacific Octopus, and after she passed I heard that there was another octopus doing the same.

    Also "The Documentary" you mentioned with Drunk Animals may have been "Animals are Beautiful People". I know that had a section like that and yeah watching the animals drunkenly stumble around was hilarious.

    Humanity's absolute frenzy for fermentation is, to me, one of our species hallmarks. If something can be pickled, distilled or boozed, we will do it! While not the only species to enjoy getting tipsy, we are the ones who take the steps to expediate the process so its literally on tap. For better or worse, this is one of our legacies and its not quite as terrible as a bunch of our other fawk ups so, uhm, cheers?
    Edit: If the thing just live son blood and water, why leave the ocean for dry land unless I missed something about completely devastated local ocean life. Yes, the whale got schloorped but there's more than that down their and humans taste bad enough when not looped.

    If the specie has male and female, the specie has sexual reproduction.
    If the specie has sexual reproduction, the specie has sexes (two sexes at minium).
    Asexual reproduction doesn't requiere more than 1 individual.

    0.2 of what? if it's per mille then she's had a few beers. If it's 0.2% then she comfortably above the legal limit for driving and close to some russian truckers. If it's 0.2 of her entire blood then were talking about 20 percent of blood being alcohol , that's about 40 times the lethal amount of alcohol if my quick googling is accurate. On quick and dirty math that like 13 liters of beer (assuming she's 50kg or near that).
    I think you mixed the way alcohol in blood is measured. Or it could be the in Finland we just calculate things differently.

      An example of a BAC test is the legal limit here in the states for driving, .08. A reading of .1 means that there is 1 unit of alcohol per 1,000 units of blood. I’m not sure what the units are exactly, though.
