They live amongst us

by Mighty_Emperor • Created 13 years ago • Modified 6 months ago
Paranoia-inducing tales of covert invasion. This might be alien infiltration or they might come from... elsewhere. Basically anything that might keep David Icke up awake at night (hmm I should probably add "V" in there too).

So the key elements are infiltration, subversion, stealth colonisation and human disguise/mimicry, with the invaders hiding in plain sight.

Quatermass and Dillon investigate, and discover a vast government production plant which has some connection with the meteorites. After coming in contact with the noxious gas contained inside the meteorites, Dillon is taken away by the plant's security guards. When Quatermass presses this issue with an old civil service acquaintance, he learns that the plant is supposedly making synthetic food. Both men learn that this is untrue, and that the true products of the plant will threaten the world itself.
