@ QD:

Yeah, but I thought some device on the spacecraft was channeling it. ??? I really ought to just rent the thing and watch it again.

It’s never quite clear why all that psychic martian mojo is in the spacecraft, but the big evil apparition is triggered when some electrical equipment charges the ship, triggering a massive psyclone (to steal a Greg Bear term) of awfulness.

Both the feature and the TV series are bootlegged on youtube.

Oh no. It’s a sign. It can only mean one thing.

We’re toast!

But we’re not on the toast – he is!

Maybe he’s trying to say “My cheesy overgrown cult is toast?” here?

Seriously, why is anyone dumb enough to think such vague patterns that could be anything if you squint hard enough mean anything? What can they really think it means assuming Cheezus has “miraculously” (hah! ) appeared on a piece of grilled plastic?

Personally, if that’s the very lame “best” that Cheezus can do I’m suddenly a lot LESS scared of the wrath of god!

Aww Phil, now I need to go and make some cheese on toast. I was trying to work, but melted cheese cravings have taken hold! [And BTW, I thought this was an astronomy blog not a Jesus appearing in strange item blog. I'm unscubscribing now, well....after I've made the cheese, te he].

You know what? Top looks more like Klingon than jesus. Look at Klingon’s traditional shaggy hair, bumps up on THE forehead and near eyes.

Bottom look like somewhat weird alien.

Ah Quatermass, from the fertile imagination of Nigel Kneale. I rate him up there with Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, and Philip K. Dick in the realms of science fiction. If you’re not familiar with him outside of Quatermass, check out The Year of the Sex Olympics, The Stone Tape (the climax raised goose bumps on me Christmas night 1972!), and The Road (unfortunately lost from the BBC archives).

The production values left a lot to be desired (very similar to early Doctor Who episodes) but the ideas were way ahead of the times – The Year of the Sex Olympics anticipating “reality TV” by at least a quarter of a century.

As for the toast, just eat it!

Amazing how Jesus and Mary keeps appearing on things (especially edible things)…

Now I must wonder what’d happen to religious people who eat things that have Jesus’ face on it. Would the face suddenly transfer to their belly? Would the waste of it still carry the image (and if it does and turns up scent-free, that’d be something closer to a miracle now, wouldn’t it? P).

Honestly… it’s weird to keep reading about this sort of thing happening while living in a developed country in the space age. Pass the flying spaghetti monster toast, please, I can use some divine(ly delicious) guidance. ;o)

All I see is an irregular burn mark.

From what I remember, Quartermass was the original (wasn’t it a serial in b&w?) and Five Million was the later remake of the movie. I’ve seen Five, but haven’t seen Quartermass yet. (but want to).

It looks like that awful plastic-cheese slice stuff. It is an affront to the FSM, an abomination that must never be allowed to enter His bolognaise.

For Thine is the cheese, the mince and tomato – Ramen.
