My friend Matt created this animation. It's not for the squeemish
A nod to John Carpenter's The Thing.

I think it was a nod to the movie "Sliver"

Slither you mean? I think that was influenced by Carpenter's film, which was of course a remake in itself

Matt is making quite a good living from YouTube and freelance work. He makes more films and faster than anyone I know!

I liked it (except for the blinking, that was a bit weird).

Reminded me of the Lego game animations.

Haha, that was very funny because that's how I met Matt. We both worked on the Lego video game animations together. I sat next to him

Really??? That's hilarious. I love those animations!

So they're going to do Lego Thing?

That would be fun but I don't think it will happen no

No, not quite that movie. It had spike coming out of the victim body if he touch the alien spikey thing! The survivor was hole up in a garage station trying to keep the spikey alien monster outside.

I know that movie. It was called Splinter. Had the guy from Joey in it. I think that makes two of us who saw that.

I think Matt's animation is definitely inspired by the John Carpenter Thing, not Splinter.

I was banging my head trying to come up with the right title!
Thanks for relieving me head!

That is a very nicely made little horror piece. I'm really interested to know, though, how does one make a living from youtube?

I will have to speak to Matt to get the correct terminology but all I know is that certain people, who got lots of 'hits' on their video's, were contacted by YouTube and offered quite a lot of money to create so many video's a year. Presumably this was based upon the estimated advertising revenue?

that was amazing. Love the whole cthulu thing he's got going on there.

Matt is a very talented guy.
