OK guys. I have done much research and it seems that I cannot create working tentacles with the tools that I have. I would have to either upgrade to 7.5b or spend countless hours keyframing every bone (IK won't work right when using a morph!

). So I now know that I can not create this particular effect but rather improvise (as all great animators have to do sometimes

). So instead I plan on having the tentacle snake down to the woman's feet and then create a loop or mold around the woman's feet (without actually touching her so as to keep her oblivious

) I can then have the guy/monster character morph into his true monster self and yank the woman with his tentacles( by her feet which is secured by the tentacles) and slam her into a wall or window or the like. Post your opinions on the idea!
