      The info said it was a 1st-Century BC Allobrogian warrior chief. So somebody buried way before the cathedral was built, and they built it on top of him. I wonder how often that has happened throughout history - getting something hundreds of years or millennia later on top of a grave?

    • @900-mileobsession8
      @900-mileobsession8 Год назад

      I read that in addition to Alien and Species, Giger also had a heavy influence on Dune before David Lynch stepped in and took it over. Then his influence was narrowed down a bit. Giger said he always wanted to work with Lynch because one of his favorite films was Eraserhead - that movie gave me the creeps, so I can easily see how it appealed to him.
