** And when we don't see the Bugs in action, we're still shown the aftermath of their carnages like the Mormon Extremists on Dantana. No use of NothingIsScarier or obscured corpses, instead copious amounts of BodyHorror and human bodies [[{{Gorn}} ripped to shreds]] are on display laying everywhere in broad daylight.
