With the blankest of blank expressions on their faces, these mysterious figures have been popping up in the most unlikely of places.

The faceless mutants have a penchant for A-list celebrity bashes and have been spotted at Elton John's White tie ball and Harrods summer sale, opened by Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall.

Totally real.

[Slings and Arrows]

Probably a very silly guerilla marketing scheme.

[xjcsa]

I think the one on the left is Michael Jackson.

[Deaf Smith]

I’ll bet that upsets the British CCTV operators.

[newnhdad]

What are they looking at with no eyes?

[evets]

They are agents of 'hope' for 'real change'. Yes, they can.

[reagan_fanatic]

Wonder if they're any relation to Odo?

[Hatteras]

You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into...

[SAMS]

More proof that some people have waaaaaay too much time on their hands.

[ClearCase_guy]

The WSJ just had an article on "murketing". It involves getting a buzz going about something without explicitly marketing it.

I suspect that a science fiction movie about faceless aliens is in the works.

[REDWOOD99]

Got the Sci-Fi Channel marathon on now!

"More proof that some people have waaaaaay too much time on their hands."

Oh wait, are you saying that people who attend Wimbledon have too much time on their hands? Or just people who wear a certain type of mask on their face?
Just askin

I thought Sculley and Mulder took care of these freaks.

[stuartcr]

How do you even know they’re looking, or even smelling?

[litehaus]

Dang, no wonder I didn’t recognise my son ....He called, said he was there and sitting in the sunny seats...I never saw him on the TV...But I didn’t know he wearing the disguise.....LOL..

[metesky]

I’ll bet that’s ‘zactly what they’re trying to do. A little spunk from the Brits?

[vietvet67]

Everyone loses face once in awhile. :-)

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

Steve Ditko, call your office!

[massgopguy]

They msut have done something that Charlie X didn’t like.

[al_c]

Okay ... that’s just stupid.

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

LOL! That scene scared the dog out of me when I was a kid!

[SuperSonic]

I'm not worried about the faceless aliens. I'm concerned about the two-faced people out there.

[bootless]

They msut have done something that Charlie X didn’t like.

REad my mind! That was actually the creepiest little vignette in that episode.

[massgopguy]

That’s probably why I remembered it.

[bootless]

Me too. And it only lasted a few seconds ... 42 years ago. That’s creepy.

[Publius6961]

Agents of hope for real change?

Any sites where there might be a clearer image of that logo?

Is "attention whores" too broad a description?

[Little Pig]

The first thing that came to mind was the Renaissance practice of the nobility going about masked to hide their identity. This would just be a more modern version, all the more so since at a distance, they are just another flesh-colored face in the crowd.

Thinking further, I wondered if this might not be people protesting the ridiculous proliferation of security cameras in blighty.

Or even people who prefer than Law Enforcement not be able to recognize them.

Kind of neat, actually. I might try that sometime.

[kaehurowing]

They’re just wearing 150 SPF sunscreen.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

Where are those cream pie throwers when you need them? It looks as if nobody is recognizing them at all.
