Sadly they don't look like horror movie ameobas.

Evolution is being clever though. The inverse square law prevent large round cells from surviving but all those convolutions dramatically increase the surface area.

Also apparently they have thousands of nuclei... in which case, I am unsure why this would qualify as "one cell" while something like a slime mold would not.

I don't understand what those things are. They don't look like anything. Is there a mockup drawing? Or are there a high-res images?

It looked like they were filming dirt.

If these grow as a single cell rather than fusing together that would explain the differentiation.
