Nightmare Fuel / Watership Down (2018)

• Due to the series placing greater focus on its female characters, the book's implication of Efrafan does being sex slaves is given more attention than other adaptations. When learning that Clover (who is imprisoned in Efrafa in this adaptation) is a former Hutch rabbit as he once was, Woundwort asks that she be brought to him and chillingly offers to let her be his queen.
  • Though she does not reciprocate his feelings, Clover at first believes Woundwort's affection for her to be genuine, and attempts to use it as a bargaining tool to save Hyzenthlay's life. As it turns out, Woundwort is not willing to bargain, proving that he has no romantic feelings for her besides sexual attraction.
  Woundwort: Either you choose to become my queen, or you live out your days in the deep burrows. It matters little to me which.
• The way Woundwort treats the arrival of the dog as it races towards the warren at Watership Down, chasing both Hazel and Bigwig to the edge of the burrow. Unlike the novel and film versions where he's caught by surprise and attacks it out of instinct, he just stands there, unperturbed and bearing a Slasher Smile as it futilely tries to dig itself into the burrow after them. Then, deprived of its prey, the dog turns to the Efrafans and kills one of them, causing the others to flee in terror, but Woundwort remains, not even moving, looking as if he's waiting for the dog to notice him. When it does, narrowing its eyes and snarling at him, Woundwort proclaims softly that he does not fear it and lunges forward.
  Woundwort: We fear no elil. I fear no dog. I. Fear. Nothing.
• For all the miniseries got wrong, Fiver's vision of Cowslip's warren is creepy, as the tree roots become spinal columns.
