Creator Cameo: Hooper briefly appears in the scene where Sam goes to a rest room. Fittingly, he is shown lighting a cigarette. | |

Playing with Fire | |
Spontaneous Combustion / int_1cc9f5e5 | comment |
Playing with Fire: Sam's fiery abilities manifest themselves when he's agitated; if he touches someone, they get an electric shock and hours later they burn to death. When he is pissed off enough, he'll set people on fire with just a thought. | |

Spontaneous Combustion / int_5c5d0032 | comment |
Eyepatch of Power: Worn by Dr. Vandenmeer, the expert on spontaneous human combustion who is brought to check on the burnt corpses of David's parents. This actually what André De Toth, the guy playing him, actually wore, since he was blind on his left eye. | |
