History NightmareFuel / VenomLetThereBeCarnage

* This is the live-action debut of '''CARNAGE''', a symbiote-possessed murderer and one of Marvel's darkest supervillains. His appearance in the film is nothing short of nightmarish: killer tentacles, predatory eyes, barbed tongue, and skin that resembles bruised flesh. His jaw is also more triangular, like that of an allosaurus, and subtle details like that make him look more monstrous than Venom.

* Carnage is born in this universe when Cletus bites Eddie's hand hard enough to draw blood. As Cletus ingests the blood, he realizes there was something alien in Eddie which has now infected Cletus, which terrifies him, but only because [[ImAHumanitarian he knows what blood tastes like]].
* The fact that Cletus seemed to know very personal details about Eddie’s life, particularly his [[DarkAndTroubledPast childhood]]. What’s even creepier is that [[TheUnreveal we never find out]] ''[[TheUnreveal how]]'' [[TheUnreveal he knew these things]].
* The depiction of Cletus as a child, done like drawings in a kids book. He killed his grandmother by pushing her down a flight of stairs and then threw a blow dryer into the bathtub with his mother in there to electrocute her. He then takes a drill to his dog. Just like the comics, this man is evil incarnate.
* One of the first things Cletus does when he breaks out of San Quentin is [[MuggedForDisguise murder a homeless man for his clothes]] and then drive to a gas station and murder the completely innocent store clerk inside by [[FinishingStomp stomping his head in]] in order to gain access to his computer. [[AxCrazy Yeesh]].

** Let's put this in perspective: Venom has just been transported to an AlternateUniverse. The first person he sees is Spider-Man who, bare in mind, thanks to [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar The Snap]] is technically still 15/16. And his first instinct is to ''lick'' the screen. Given the symbiote's borderline {{Yandere}} obsession with Peter in the comics, this might not bode well for Spidey.

[[caption-width-right:350:Oh shit, that is a red one!]]

** His transformation became this as well! Traditionally, Cletus turns into Carnage by having the symbiote envelop itself over his body, like Venom. Here however, his body ''literally'' transforms -- as in "he injected the [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil2 G-Virus]] into himself" transforms; his body horrifically warps and mutilates itself into Carnage's shape, and is not only fully alive by the end, but more noticeably seems to feel ''no pain'' in the process. Cletus is so ''detached'' from humanity that even his own body ''violently mutating into an abomination'' doesn't elicit even a grunt in pain.

* TheStinger. Venom explains that Symbiotes have a HiveMind and that the full extent of their knowledge would [[TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow be far too much for Eddie's human mind.]] After Eddie takes up Venom’s offer to be shown a fraction of their knowledge, ''something'' inexplicable changes in their hotel room, with unnatural yellow lights piercing their window and an earthquake seemingly happening. When it's all done, Eddie and Venom alike are ''freaked out'', and discover that while they are in a similar room, several things have changed. [[WhamShot And then they see the news report...]]

* The second trailer shows Cletus biting Eddie's hand hard enough to draw blood. As Cletus ingests it he realizes there was something alien in Eddie, which has now infected Cletus.

* Carnage is enough to scare even Venom, who previously went up against Riot knowing full well his opponent could outmatch him.
** To get Venom back into the fight, a desperate Eddie promises to let Venom eat anyone he wants. Venom then leaps into battle with an insane amount of enthusiasm, implying he'll be holding Eddie to his word. Also counts as a Funny Moment.
