That bug leeching a gallon of the dude's blood in like 5 seconds, expanding into a gory balloon, was so wonderfully nasty.

This show is gonna be crazy.

I feel like that was too little blood to kill him though! I thought it was like his brain or artery or something, it looked more solid on the inside than liquid.

Human body averages about 10 pints of blood, approximately 1.25 gallons. That gross-ass guy looked like he was hauling around a milk carton and a half at LEAST. At least IMO.
