** {{spoiler|Orochimaru's ''true'' true form (yeah, he seems to have a lot of those) is that he's made of snakes, while being a giant snake himself. What do the snakes look like? Well, they certainly don't do anything to take away his reputation as a creepy boy watcher.}} Even before that was revealed, it was evident he was made of {{spoiler|snakes}} when he got cut in half and had them spring out of his halves to pull them together.
** Tsunade's Summon, Katsuya the Slug, could dissolve into many smaller slugs, each of which talks and behaves like the original.
* Mrs. Robinson in ''[[Jo JoJoJo's Bizarre Adventure|Steel Ball Run]]'' (a ''man'' with a [[Gender Blender Name]]), supposedly was killed by men and hung out on a cactus only to revive. Similar to Shino, he used his body to store various insects which he could control. What is ''really'' creepy is that his power didn't stem from a Stand... almost as if it was entirely fueled by some kind of horror propane.
* Arachne from ''[[Soul Eater]]'' hid herself by turning her body into 3000 spiders that spread across the world, and then hid her soul inside a giant Golem.
* In ''[[King of Thorn]]'', the Medusa manifestation of {{spoiler|Peter Stevens}}'s psyche takes on this form.
Line 60:
* Played in a hilarious fashion in the Disney sequel, ''[[Halloweentown (film)|Halloweentown: Kalabar's Revenge]]''. Sophie and Dylan realize that Alex, believed to be Carl's father, is in fact a golem created from the villain Kalabar to distract Gwen. The golem (wearing a frog costume) eats a fly Sophie conjures with her magic, breaking the illusion. An angry Gwen then blasts him with magic, turning him back into a pile of frogs.
* [[Godzilla vs. Destoroyah|Destroyah]] is a truly massive example, although as its component creatures are microbes, it appears solid to the naked eye.
* In the live-action modern version of ''[[The Sorcerer's Apprentice|The Sorcerers Apprentice]]'' (with [[Nicolas Cage]] as the sorcerer no less!), the villain, Maxim Horvath, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VZllR44gdA first appears] as a swarm of cockroaches scurrying out of a matryoshka doll and assembling themselves into a human figure, complete with clothes.
* In ''[[Fright Night]] Part II'' the undead . . . thing . . . Bozworth spends most of the film catching, identifying and then ingesting insects. When finally killed, he bursts open to reveal he's pretty much skin, skeleton, and lots of squirming little bugs.
* ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin and the Return of Jafar]]'' has a variant, where the Genie and Abu's picnic is attacked by a swarm that spiders that pile together before turning back into Jafar. The bugs weren't his true form, however--apparently [[For the Evulz|he just wanted to freak them out]].
* Inverted in ''[[The Human Centipede]]''. There, you have a large borderline insectoid made up of three humans.
* The [[Sy FySyfy]] film ''The Bone Snatcher'' has a swarm of demonic ants that achieve a rudimentary humanoid form using the bones of people they've eaten. It's... actually kind of cool.
* [[Played for Laughs]] in ''[[Finding Nemo]]'' with the school of fish that forms itself into various shapes. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le13by2WM70 Here it is.]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svOlz2ei4Yk This] Kollywood film, starts out as your standard Terminator robot with Matrix effects, then becomes a macro-nanobot snake made of guys
