[Suicide Squad -2021] How does the mini Starro kill you?

I'm trying to understand how these things work and how they kill you. I get they attach onto your face but in the comics, once you pull them off you regain back your body. So how exactly do these things work that once they latch onto your face that you end up dying?

When Flagg, Cleo, and Peacemaker make it down to Starro with Gaius Grieves, one of the Starro hosts is strapped down with the mini Starro entirely peeled off and you can see that the host's face is gone and there's a tendril extending from the mini Starro into the host's face and presumably attaching to the brain. So I'd guess it hijacks your nervous system to gain control of your body as it feeds on your consciousness.
