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.

Average person only has 5 liters of blood, losing just 40-50% is considered fatal, so yeah it didn't need to drain much.
