Benning's assimilation looks way too fake.<br />It appears to be a dummy with some slimy goo smeared over him.<br />Would have been better if Bennings were still alive while it was happening.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06096593305332206994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-502417673011021657.post-46233179500926377602011-11-22T13:27:33.932-08:002011-11-22T13:27:33.932-08:00here is a better picture of stabbing scene

The original idea (lit by the snowcat lights) would have been amazing but I do so love "It's Bennings"<br /><br />Easily one of the best blogs I've read, thank you so much for providing all this info on one of my top three movies of all time<br /><br />Keep them coming!<br /><br />P.s. If you put all this in a book I'd buy it in a heartbeat!Andy Bainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720092448521746001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-502417673011021657.post-76975029203012994312011-10-06T22:47:11.779-07:002011-10-06T22:47:11.779-07:00Thanks, Stewart.

He's oddly my favorite character in the film, and I've always been curious how he was selected for the role, as he's perfect. <br /><br />Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
