- Only character to take more damage and keep going is Three Fingers, who took a full shotgun blast at close range, but appears alive and well in The Stinger. He also gets a knife thrown into his chest by Dale, but this seemed to only amuse him.
- Mook Horror Show: Dale. The mutant family discover too late why it was a bad idea to try to eat a former Marine and kill his friends. Dale escapes capture and goes from the hunted to the hunter, killing the mutants one by one. Ma and Pa become absolutely horrified after discovering what splattered remains there were of their children. See Roaring Rampage of Revenge below for more details.

- Too Dumb to Live: Elena's first action when being chased by a crazy killer is trying to put on her pants.
