Monsters
Monsters aren't much different than all living things.  Some monsters are bad and some are good.  The following monsters were at the center of this film.  These sketches were the basis for the monsters that eventually appeared in the film. 
 
Bat Creature
A pair of human-sized bats, it is difficult to tell at first in this film whether these creatures are bad or good.  They bring out the fear in all who see them but their appearance is deceiving...

 
Sytharee
Though mainly a water creature, the Sytharee comes into contact with people on land as they attempt to relax and enjoy the sun and sand.  El Mando is called in to rescue the unsuspecting sunbathers from this evil.
 
Party Monster
This monster harasses guests as they arrive at Johnny's house for a party.  Johnny tells the monsters to go away - no monsters allowed!
 
Specter
The Specter is a ghost-like monster.  This monster never speaks or threatens anyone.  It merely shows up when Dutch seems to not know his way--the Specter points Dutch in the right direction.
 
Woods Creature
One of Cutter's chained creatures, the Woods Creature 'takes care' of those who wrong Cutter.
 

Sabine Monster
This monster becomes smitten with Sabine after observing her from afar during a photo shoot that she and Moira are doing with El Mando.  The Sabine Monster doesn't have good intentions and El Mando yet again is called into action--and in the nick of time!
 
Omar the Giant
Relatively harmless, this large and lumpy monster saves Maddy and Jill from the clutches of Cutter's men.  Seemingly a gentle giant, Omar comes through in a pinch to help in the battle between good and evil.

One Last Stop in a Violent Town

Music and Lyrics by F. B. Martin

All those words that you said finally got to me.
All those harsh accusations so wrong.
I wanted to go.
Just say goodbye.
But that’s when I knew you were right all along.

Well the biggest thing wrong with our lives, it seems,
Is when death comes too soon or too late.
The bad guys and good
So misunderstood
It’s here in the place where they meet that I hate.  

I told the truth except when I lied.
I tried to be like you.
I love you more than I can say
So please don’t say we’re through.

Let’s run away and leave all your tears behind.
Let’s run away and leave all your fears behind.
Let’s run away as long as we make
One last stop in a violent town.

There are monsters and heroes among us all.
Monsters and heroes for me.
This bloodshed and pain,
This world gone insane,
Will soon be no more than a bad memory.

So I’m forced to examine my life again.
To see me just the way that you do.
The truth that I find
Ain’t pretty or kind
But sticks like a bullet that didn’t go through. 

I told the truth except when I lied
I tried to be like you.
I love you more than I can say
So please don’t say we’re through.

Let’s run away and leave all your tears behind.
Let’s run away and leave all your fears behind.
Let’s run away as long as we make
One last stop in a violent town.
