History NightmareFuel / TheAtomicTimeOfMonsters

* Ahuul witnesses Tyrantor's birth from a distance, and realizes instantly that by taking the kid out of the picture, he can achieve the ultimate revenge on Tyrantis.
* The Terror is revealed to have been converted into a cyborg monster known as the Thunderchild prototype, or as it is later known, [=MechaTyrantis=]. But when we first see it, it's in a state of complete and utter mental agony. The Terror feels as if he's in a nightmare from which there is no waking, and he can actually feel the places where his parts were replaced with robotic ones. And when Ludlow pilots him, he hears a secondary voice slowly overriding his own and taking over his very consciousness, and there's nothing he can do about it (for a while) except survive off of his hatred of Tyrantis. AndIMustScream has never applied so hard to a non-human.

* Ahuul witnesses Tyrantor's birth from a distance, and realizes instantly that by taking the kid out of the picture, he can achieve the ultimate revenge on Tyrantis.

** He also casually implies that Crustakra has killed people that came to the island in the past.

* The monsters of Green Hell are extremely hostile to any and all intruders. Though Bobo is the exception, the other two, [[WickedWasps Chlorespa]] and [[SlayingMantis Mantiresia]], go on the attack as soon as possible. The worst part is that they're in fact being controlled by Dr. Murnau, who's using a special sound frequency machine to manipulate their actions. At one point for a demonstration, he summons them [[KickTheDog just to make them fight against each other.]]

* Dr. Murnau implying to Lerna that because [[HeKnowsTooMuch she knows so much more about the kaiju crisis than her designation allows]], Clark might actually kill her.

** The fact that Crustakra, already an alien-looking SeaMonster, manages to beat Tyrantis and leave him heavily injured.

** Also in the temple, Lerna realizing with dawning horror that the big statue of a large serpent [[ThatsNoMoon isn't actually a statue.]] It's Gorgolisk, and sure enough, the beast [[EyeAwaken doesn't stay sleeping for long.]] Thankfully, despite her looks, she's a good kaiju, and she goes after Mothmanud's scent instantly.

* One of the murals Lerna finds in Gorgolisk's temple depicts several Reptodites staring at a round shape surrounded by tentacles. It's the first indication that the kaiju have dealt with beings from space, and it won't be the last...

* Mothmanud's first appearance. It shows up in San Modesto in its larval stage, and not only kills MauveShirt Mars Man Jackson, but ''almost everyone in the town''. [[EverybodysDeadDave It's all gone]] by the time the beast is finished and ready to move on to somewhere else.

* Mothmanud's first appearence. It shows up in San Modesta in its larval stage, and not only kills MauveShirt Mars Man Jackson, but ''almost everyone in the town''. [[EverybodysDeadDave It's all gone]] by the time the beast is finished and ready to move on to somewhere else.

* Tyrantis and the Terror getting caught in a chasm rock collapse when the humans detonate the entrance. The jade kaiju is barely able to escape with his life while the Terror isn't so lucky.

* Once again, Ahuul is responsible for human death. That being the entire film crew that Gwen was working with. She's completely shaken when she recounts this to Lerna.

** During her fight with Tyrantis, Girtabane injects him with her potent venom. It causes the retrosaur unbearable agony, and had it not been for his quick recovery, he would have been killed by the mutant arachnid.

* After Clark has a plane drop a nuclear bomb right on the Myrmidant colony mound, it summons something far worse. A giant black scorpion named Girtabane. One of its first actions is to grab an attacking Ajaxant, and rip it into three pieces.

* When General Sherman's army of tanks attacks the Myrmidant colony, they only manage to destroy one of them, and that's after it demonstrated the standard kaiju HealingFactor. Soon, the ants are all over the tanks, biting into them to get at the tasty humans within.

** The next are a pair of scientists, Dr. Jacobs and Dr. Deemer. The latter is snatched up by one, which proceeds to eat away at his torso while the other escapes. After he contacts Area 51, he can only wait in quiet acceptance as the rest of the colony closes in to get him next.

** The first is the military officer. He hears a horrible shriek and sees tons of glowing green eyes in the night. It dawns on him that this is no ordinary situation right before the monster ants kill him before he can scream. Then they turn their attention to the nearby facility...

** Ahuul's attack on Genriton. In less than a minute, he's able to eat about thirty people, and every line of defense fails against him. Had Tyrantis not shown up, he would have left the entire town a mass grave.

* Lerna and Collins having a collective OhCrap when they seal off the Hollow Mountain cave...[[NiceJobBreakingItHero and keep Ahuul outside]]. At that point, the vile pterosaur decides that it's a sign for it to raid the human nest (the nearby town), and feast.

* Lerna nearly getting eaten by a ManEatingPlant that looks like a cross between a venus flytrap and a pitcher plant. Collins isn't so lucky, though he manages to get out with his knife.

** The scene in which [[TerrorAtMakeOutPoint he attacks a young couple.]] He lets out his horrible screech, breaking the car windows, before swooping in and getting the car into his jaws. The couple can barely scream as he crunches the vehicle with them in it before spitting it out to feast on the viscera.

* [[WorldWreckingWave The Superquake of 54.]] For one thing, it was triggered by nuclear testing, which means that it's our fault. But more than that, this thing spread across every land mass neighboring the pacific ocean and shook it to its core. It's measured as having a magnitude of '''9.6''', maybe even greater. To give you an idea, that's almost more than the Valdivia Earthquake of 1960, the biggest earthquake in our time. This one led to the deaths of around 4,000 people, and practically reshaped everywhere it touched. And on top of everything, THIS is what triggers [[FromBadToWorse the kaiju crisis.]]
