Species

Factual error: At the end when the oil in the cavern is burning there is no sign of smoke. With a fire as large as it appears to be, everyone in there should be choking to death, yet they don't even seem the least bit bothered. Forest Whitaker should have also been roasting over the flames, yet he is unscathed.

Factual error: When Sil grabs Dan's ankle whilst he is hanging over the oil pit, she climbs completely out of the oil, she should be entirely aflame at this point as she is coated in oil and had to pull herself through the burning surface. Dan's leg would also catch fire from this and should be severely burned, not to mention the fact that he was just hanging over a fire.

Xavier Fitch: We decided to make it female so it would be more docile and controllable.
Preston Lennox: More docile and controllable, eh? You guys don't get out much.
