Exactly.
Long ago, I saw an English sci-fi movie in which an ancient relic is discovered in a subway excavation. Turns out we are all descendents of Martian colonizers and its the job of the relics to return us all to the old ways. A very good movie, very disturbing.
I had the same feelings when I saw this image.
I think it looks like a huge bug gone bad! That thing would give me nightmares!
