Here's what Wiki says of these parasite chaps that ride the Great Clover Express and cause such horrors:
"The creature is covered with parasites, which it sheds as part of a "post-birth ritual". Abrams described the parasites as "horrifying, dog-sized creatures that just scatter around the city and add to the nightmare of the evening". Reeves added that "The parasites have a voracious, rabid, bounding nature, but they also have a crab-like crawl. They have the viciousness of a dog, but with the ability to climb walls and stick to objects". The parasites fall off and begin to attack people. The parasite's jaw is unique in that the top half of the head is the mandible, moving up from the lower jaw to open, as opposed to the reverse with almost all terrestrial animals. The top and lower jaws end in serrated edges and also have four pairs of eyes each. The rest of the parasite is comprised of a crustacean-like carapace, several pairs of claws, and arms. A deep blue-purple muscular membrane stretches between the top and lower jaws. When a human is bitten, the victim becomes ill and bleeds profusely, mainly from the eyes, and shortly after this, the torso expands and explodes. They are called HSPs (Human Scale Parasites) on the Blu-ray Special Investigation Mode."
And yes, I have now fulfilled your geek-quota for the day. Let's go get laid now and make ourselves feel complete.

the movie was overrated (as most are these days). I heard people got nauseous while watching it because of the movement of the camera . I guess I fell for the hype. It was ok...
Is it weird I wouldn't mind going out like that?
It's a little weird, yes, Simon. But I guess it's a quick death. And certainly a unique one. It's got that going for it.
It's also got bleeding from all your orifices and exploding though, so...
