Good pics of the creature.


Does anyone know where I can find really good, clear images of the creature? (apart from pausing the DVD, of course)Or for that matter the cast in costume? I'm thinking of drawing a manga of the movie for my own amusement, and I need referance materials.

Of course, I'm half- tempted to redesign the beast anyway, make it more scorpion like. I haven't quite made my mind up.

I've only been able to find one good image of the thing, here:
http://www.whalefish.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ Look under S and Split Second is somewhere in there. I always thought those barbed steak knife fingers were badass...

Cheers! That's exactly the kind of thing I've been looking for!

Sure, but where do you think that image came from? It almost looks like a miniature model of the thing.

Hehe, always wondered how he/it was able to write "I'm back" on the mirror with those knife-fingers ;D

I recently thought of that. It probably rips out hearts with a violent forward-backward motion of the arm, grabbing the heart in the process. That could account for the quickness of its executions. After doing this to the first victim, er, maybe it used her hand to write it? That's what I think, at least

How it was able to deposit the icebox in the middle of the police station undetected is another story...

I think the creature used it's elbow. :) Well using the heart of its victims would have been more practical. :)

Didnt the creature have the heart delivered to the station?How it managed to get someone to deliver it I dont know.

Holding the heart like a pen and using it to write with was my second guess, LOL

Writing on the mirror with the heart as a pen, getting a courier to deliver the box to the police station.. this makes for some great extra features–deleted scenes :D

Whoever the creature got to deliver the icebox must've been paid well.

You vote for pizza and a movie, they vote to rape you with switchblades. That's voting.

If you look close, you can see the Killer's glowing eyes behind the visor. And I'm calling it 'the Killer' because that's how it's identified in the movie's credits.
