Every bone in his body must be broken. But I'm not sure that's what killed him.  From Them! (1954), which had its own quote thread

If he's in there, we can get him through this hatch. I'll go, I know the layout in there.  From Alien (1979), which was seemingly inspired by It! The Terror from Beyond Space (1958), and which inspired its own quote thread

Perhaps there was once a civilization on Mars.  It ended. Disease, war, something terrible. The Martians that were left went back to barbarism. Savage murderers.  From Quatermass and the Pit (1967), which had its own quote thread

We were all outside the ship exploring the southern tip of syrtis major. Suddenly a sandstorm came up and we started back. I was driving the jeep. Sand was so thick we could barely see.

Every ounce of edible fluid in his body is gone. Probably through some osmosis process, there are no punctures.

It's an alien bacteria of some kind. So far the infection isn't critical, but our drugs don't even touch it.

We could get around behind the creature by going out the control room emergency air lock...  ...moving down the hull to the emergency air lock on the motor level.
