Tentacle Overview

Dead Space Remake (2023)- TentacleTentacle
These large, tree-trunk-thick tentacles occasionally whip out from the ship’s darkened corridors. They use their harpoonlike tongue to grab your foot and drag you into-their lair. You cannot slow it down or defeat it before it gets you on your back, so don’t bother firing on it when it emerges from the hall.
