Drac - Reptilian Alien from the movie Enemy Mine
Drac Jeriba 'Jerry' Shigan is the reptilian humanoid alien from the eighties classic Enemy Mine.
"Jerry" and the members of its species put great stock by their lineages as well as the teachings of Shismar.
Before a young one is accepted into the society of grownups its parent has to recite its whole lineage.
This reptilian alien has claws, its body and head are covered with plates of various size. It is great swimmer. It has a language based on gurgling sounds.
It is hermaphrodite and reproduces by way of parthenogenesis - which is an "asexual form of reproduction found in females where growth of and development of an embryo occurs without fertilization by a male."
Our visitor Margie is looking for a movie she saw as a kid. Here is her description:
"I am trying to find a TV movie I saw in 1963 -- was a late 50's or very early 60's sci-fi in which Madagascar fish protoplasm is brought to the U.S., escapes and becomes a huge blob that strangles people (and maybe eats them). This is not 'The Blob' with Steve McQueen. Could be Twilight Zone or Outer Limits?"
