cinematic film-quality slightly-grainy analog film still . A science fiction scene set in a rocky extraterrestrial shore. An ancient reef-dwelling many-armed crawling body, an alien creature, is crawling up a vertical face. It is a cephalopod, covered in titanium-white mottled weed-camouflaged flesh. It has six sucker-lined arms, a single whip lash tendril and a cluster of sensory pits. It bears four sodium-orange bioluminescent organs and a beaked mouth. Past it, a slope of lithophyte crusts catches the light.
