Title: Cargo ship & cocoons, oh my! [SyFy original movie...] Post by: RykiBloom on March 28, 2010, 03:59:12 PM Okay, about 5 or so years ago there was a movie I believe on SyFy (was Sci-Fi at the time) that I really need to find the title of.
What I remember is--some people find a cargo ship, or just a ship, something, and once they open it something sort of small and cocooned shaped jumps out and slithers down the hall. I can't really remember much afterwards, but I believe this thing grows, they get the military (or...?) into the action, then they finally kill it. Once examined by a doctor, she find an egg within the creature. Then obviously it escapes and the only other detail I remember is this black guy it has an encounter with, then just kills him... Please help x] I beg you! Title: Re: Cargo ship & cocoons, oh my!

I wish they would release it on DVD; I have an old VHS (with a huge case) in my collection.

Oh, yeah, great movie. :thumbup: I will confirm it matches most plot points RykiBloom listed, EXCEPT: The black guy lives (!!!) No military guys show up Another possibility has occurred to me: Blue Monkey It has a coccoon, growing creature, eggs, and military presence. However, the black guy survives (!!!) here, too. |
