Subway-platform reveal

A figure resembling a tall man in a long coat opens the entire male silhouette and reveals that the coat, head and posture are insect camouflage.

Clerk's note —

On a subway platform, what reads as a tall man in a long coat and hat turns out to be no man at all. The whole silhouette opens up, and the coat, the head and the posture are revealed as insect camouflage. The human shape was a surface the creature wore.

dir. Guillermo del Toro
