Warner Music Group Sucks!

...are you sure? I mean i don't mean to be a smart ass or anything but i watched the movie for the first time just now and, is that what that thing was?

reply

It may well have been a layer of thick vomit.

reply

Where did he reveal this? The story is a stand-alone short story, written long before the other movie segments so it would surprise me if its really a scalp-monster.

reply

He didn't reveal anything.
It's just the OP wasting people's time.

The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he is God.

reply

No, it really is the guy's hair that was dropped in the lake. The hair had invisible lethal dandruff, which everyone knows, makes hair expand into a giant oily blob.

or maybe it was fatboy's last meal

reply

Actually, it's what the BP oil spill is going to turn into in about 3 weeks.

I simply thought it was just some carnivorous mutant organism. A freak of nature of some sort. It was definitely a one-of-a-kind.

maybe it was one of IT's kids that escaped at the end of the book

I'm afraid it's a bit more complicated than that:

Hitch didn't just strangle Annie Lansing -- he violated her as well. Their son sprang from Annie's corpse, and crawled around for many years till he found Old Chief Wood'nhead clutching Sam Whitemoon's dried-out scalp. Feeling sorry for Hitch Jr. and his baldness, Woody gave the scalp to him. Like Samson, Hitch Jr. gained strength from the hair.

Knowing he could never live in normal society, he fled to the woods of Pennsylvania, just north of Horlicks University. He came across a lonely-looking cabin there, and thinking it was deserted, went inside.

There were three beds in the cabin; the first was too hard, the second was too soft, but the third was just right. So Hitch Jr. laid down and went to sleep.

But the cabin wasn't deserted, and the occupants soon came home from their picnic.

"Somebody's been sleeping in my bed!" said Nathan Grantham. "And they didn't leave me any cake!"

"Somebody's been sleeping in our bed!" said Becky and Harry. "We'll hold our breath till we find out who it was!"

"Somebody's been sleeping in my bed too!" said Fluffy. "And he's still in it! He's left a big crate-r!"

The others rolled their eyes, tired of Fluffy's crate-inspired puns. And at that, they fell on Hitch Jr. and ate him up. But none of them knew what would happen next.

After their meal, the remains of Hitch Jr. caused them severe indigestion. They all vomited at the same time, right on top of the cockroaches that ate their way out of Upson Pratt's body. The mixture of vomit and struggling cockroaches began to seethe and bubble. Suddenly, the mass sent out pseudopods that grasped Becky, Harry, Nathan and Fluffy. The quartet of monsters were pulled into the mass and consumed, becoming the monster known as Blobby.

After laying on the cabin floor for a while, Blobby began to feel hungry. It slithered from the cabin and oozed through the woods until it came across Cascade Lake. And that's where it stayed till it met Randy, Deke, LaVerne and Rachel. It absorbed them and lived happily till suddenly it was run over by a truck.

--THE END--

I can't believe how many people in this thread didn't realize that this was so obviously a joke.
