They lay their eggs directly into the caterpillar. Their larvae eat it from the inside out, keeping it alive until they burst through its skin

Four or five grams of mushrooms would get me zombified as well.

It's a video game that was recently turned into a really good HBO show. The game is by the same people who did the Uncharted series.

I first remember learning about this kind of fungus from a season 2 episode of the X-Files. LINK Pretty good guest star cast in that one w/Bradley Whitford, Hiro Kanagawa, Leland Orser, and Shawnee Smith.
