Fred Thompson bears an uncanny resemblance to the Creature from the Black Lagoon
Some people have been struck by Giuliani's resemblance to Nosferatu. I say: That's nothing compared to the similarity between Fred Thompson and the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

7. Wasn't that Thompson's Hollywood debut?
They cast a young Fred Thompson in that low-budget picture as it saved them the cost of a costume.

12. grrrr
The Creature trilogy was my favorite group of films as a kid.

The Thompson comparison is an insult to make-believe gillmen everywhere.

20. That side-by-side is a keeper. I can imagine
Romney, Ghouliani, and McCain featuring it prominently in their ads.

21. Which one is which?
Please label the pictures. I'm not sure which one is which.

P.S. If I had to guess, I'd say the picture on the left is Thompson and the one on the right is The Creature (actually a rip-off creature in a movie with low production values).

19. Unfair...the Creature doesn't carry around a gut like Thompson's
otherwise, it is a remarkable resemblance

25. I always thought Giuliani looked like Mussolini,
though not as much as Jesse Ventura does.

26. No way!
Creature from the Black Lagoon was cool! He was the last of his kind and unique. Those jerks made a great creature extinct. Sorry, I've never gotten over him getting killed in the end. *sob*
