1* Capitan Lucas may not be the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree but, he has his moments.
2--> '''Lucas''': It is impossible. [[BadassBoast But I, Lucas, will do it!]]
3** There's also the scene in which the more {{Jerkass}} scientist [[OnlyInItForTheMoney Mark]] needs to be talked down. Lucas does so by holding a knife to his throat while sporting a very broad smile. Note that Lucas has been completely friendly and deferential up until this point: but once his authority as captain is questioned...
4* The Creature itself is very badass when he needs to be.
5** The suit itself was a triumph of special effects for the time, and still looks convincing today.
6** Special note has to be given to Ricou Browning. He played the Creature in all the water scenes across the three films, having to swim, fight, and act whilst in a heavy aquatic special effects suit ''while holding his breath for minutes on end.''
