Science fiction and phantasy are full of nasties who get their boot not from champagne , but from the assorted component part of you and me . Here are 10 stories about characters get loopy on humankind ( and the episodic metahuman ) .
notation : Some cock-a-hoop spoilers for older show ahead ( Torchwood , coughing cough ) . Also , I ’m using the great unwashed in moderately on the loose sense — genetically and preternaturally altered personalities reckon here .
10 . ) Futurama – “ Spanish Fry ”
On an ill - fated camping trip , Fry ’s honker is cut off by blackened market foreign drug pushers , who sell “ human horn ” as a chassis of extraterrestrial sexual sweetening . Later in the sequence , Fry ’s ( ahem ) doodle almost becomes an alien ’s aphrodisiac .
9 . ) Sex natural gas
On the second episode of Torchwood , a sentient alien gas possesses man so it can get walloped on virile orgasms . Of naturally , the bloke twist into Fun Dip after they blows their loads . The Sex Gasfound human orgone the most pleasurable sexual energy . This is why you never , ever have unprotected sexual activity in Welsh nightclubs .

6 . ) Troll 2
In this garbage classic , trolls use a magical elixir to transform human beings into delectable veggie matter to hork down their tool mouths . One of the fictional character — Arnold , of“OH MY GOOOD!”fame — is n’t consumed , but transform into a houseplant . I ’m start out on a limb ( Get it ? Get it ? ) , but I consider it ’s safe to assume that most of the characters in Troll 2 had some sort of botanic help , both off and on camera .
5 . ) Humans feeding on lamia
Both True Blood and the Blade TV show characteristic subplots about multitude consuming lamia . On Troobs , homo can get hook to vampire stock ( “ V ” ) , which causes enhanced awareness and terrifying priapism .

3 . ) American Vampire
In Scott Snyder ’s Vertigo comic , vampires can get loaded , but they have to make the effort to wassail the pedigree of somebody who is altogether pixilated . This is why I only wassail a patented cocktail of Garlic Schnapps and Thunderbird . I call it “ The Nauseous Nosferatu . ”
