Catalogue text

Ceti eel created during the production of the Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan feature film. The only life form indigenous to Ceti Alpha V, the Ceti eel's larva can enter a human ear and wrap itself around the cerebal cortex, rendering the victim susceptible to outside influence. This plaster cast was taken from the original mold used in production. Some small pieces have broken off over time but otherwise in excellent condition. Measures 5" x 11". From the collection of Doug Drexler.
