A mysterious ---- causes people to become bellicose

What was tha tdrug that the “Newcomers” had in Alien Nation? I saw it back in 1988, so I don’t remember much about it except that there was a drug that made them into berserkers and if they took a large enough dose of it it made them into supermen.

There have been several things I can think of with supersoldiers in them; X-files for one, and…

The movie The City of Lost Children has a flea circus operator who has trained his fleas to inject people with a drug that makes them violently insane.

Family holiday - Thanksgiving, Christmas?

I can’t believe no one has mentioned Helen of Troy!

Speaking of which, saying the phrase ‘I can’t believe no one has mentioned’ causes SD members to become bellicose. :wink:

I don’t recall the movie, but a 1980’s movie had a scene where a lot of money was blowing around. It caused the crowd of people to become belicose and struggle over the money. Does that count?

That’s called a McGuffin. :rolleyes: Nothing supernatural/scientific/mystical about it.

You’re talking about the original movie, right? I believe it was a synthesized and/or concentrated Newcomer hormone.
