In the second film, the Krites appear larger than in the first film, have larger teeth, with fur thicker and more haphazard than their predecessors covering their entire bodies except for their arms and legs.
The third film portrays a larger, more rounded version of the Krites. Their fur is thicker and spikier than before, and appears to be blacker than the brownish tint seen in the second film. The skin is also lighter than before. In the third and fourth films, the Krites look about the same in every aspect, although their eyes appear duller in the later film. Not much is mentioned regarding the reproduction habits of the Krites, as no information is shown in the films or given in interviews by the creators.
They are portrayed with a need to eat before laying eggs, but how they produce eggs in the first place is never revealed. No mating rituals are shown or discussed in the films. In Critters 4 , Charlie tells Fran that it takes six months for Krite eggs to incubate.
It may be that temperature has an effect on Krite eggs, seeing as the eggs in Critters 2 and Critters 3 seemingly hatch in response to close proximity to heat a heater and the underside of a truck respectively. This also appears to be a factor in Critters 4 and Critters 2 in which the eggs lie dormant when cryogenically frozen or left in a cold drafty barn and hatch almost immediately when exposed to a warmer temperature. Extremely cold temperatures also seem to have a detrimental effect on eggs, as hairless hatchling Krites are shown in Critters 4 when the eggs are laid in a cold incubator.
That Krites are exclusively carnivorous as shown repeatedly in each film. The idea that eating more and more increases the Krite's size, eventually leading to a Krite becoming the alpha or dominant in its group, is suggested only in the first film and may be a sign of Krite maturity, as the Krites in the first film are much older than the Krites in the subsequent films.
Krites are normally seen to hunt and attack in groups in the movies. Charlie explains in the fourth film that Krites generally go for a victim's face and neck, although the films show them attacking the chest and gut area of a victim more often than not.
Once a victim is caught, usually one Krite initiates the attack and the others quickly follow in one swift barrage. Krites' only weapons are the natural weapons built into their bodies.
One such mechanism is the ability to shoot a poison barb like a projectile at a victim. It is not revealed whether these barbs affect other Krites. The fourth film is the only film in which the Krites do not utilize their poison barbs.
The size and thickness of the barbs varies from film to film. The beloved B-horror creature-feature franchise Critters turns 35 years old this April. The cult sci-fi-horror-comedy series is comprised of two theatrically-released feature films, two direct-to-video releases, a made-for-television movie, and an episodic web TV series. The first four films were released six years apart from before the franchise went dormant for 27 years.
In , both Critters Attack! As such, it's worth wondering whether the Critters franchise has seen its final days or if it'll persist in the years to come. While star Dee Wallace returned to the franchise 33 years after appearing in the original Critters, she alone could not save the critical drubbing Critters Attack!
Directed by Bobby Miller from a Scott Lobdell script, the made-for-TV effort concerns Drea Tashiana Washington , a college hopeful who agrees to babysit for a professor in order to score brownie points ahead of enrollment. Drea decides to take the professor's three young children on a trek in the mountains, only to be met by a vicious gaggle of extraterrestrial monsters with a penchant for human flesh and blood. Shot back to back with and released on video less than one year after Critters 3 , the fourth iteration of the franchise stars such acclaimed actors as Angela Bassett, Terrence Mann, and Brad Dourif.
