You know who did that idea first, Roger Corman in Attack of the Crab Monsters (1957). Giant predatory crabs can talk to people by telepathy, then consume them and absorb their personalities, into the crab. It's a B movie, but the concept was really cool. As soon as I seen the bear creature in Annihilation I thought of Attack of the Crab Monsters.

I remembered Yoda saying something about how the noise was going to be the Annihilation Noise the way that the bwwwaaaamp was the Inception Noise when I read this today:

Still think of this film from time to time; I really did enjoy it.
