Unique creature type from movies, stories, etc

[tecnowraith]

I looking for certain type of creature or monster from movies, tv shows, comic books, manga, anime or novels. This type are aliens that possess people and/or objects and when they do they reshape them into mechanized creatures or different sizes. I have this done before but I just do not remember where. Any ideas or suggestions?

There was a Jaimie Lee Curtis movie called Virus that had something like that.

Not exactly what I am thinking of, it was more instantaneously than surgical like in the movie.

The Borg seem to fit your description. Some of the Cenobytes in certain Hellraiser movies also work (3 and 4 stand out in my mind, but I could be wrong).

For manga, check out Gyo by Junji Ito. But be warned, it's fairly graphic.

Katamari?

I have seen this before in movie, tv show, anime or video game but just do not remember. I know its not comics or manga cause hardly any of those anymore.

I remember seeing objects like vehicles, electronics and others become moveable alien-like creatures and people become the same thing but not looking human anymore and they were tech and flesh but not look like cyborgish. The closest I can think of are the Dust Men Conduits from InFamous but more alien looking.

This sounds a bit like Tetsuo- the iron man.
