Dream Journal for May the Eighth · 4:51pm May 11th
I had a disgusting nightmare about John Carpenter's 'The Thing' but in a college dorm, instead of an antartic research base. RDJ was there. There was a lot of nudity, like a slasher movie, but it was decidedly unsexy. They were doing the blood sample scene, but without any lab, they just put a naked person in a bathtub and dripped hot wax on them. A dude with greasy hair and a hastily wrapped stump of a leg kept vomiting from the pain, then eating his vomit off himself while weeping about how hungry he is. His burns looked more like they came from something electric as they writhed and pulsated, then exploded into bloody tentacles. Then I awoke, disturbed to say the least.
