    I'm watching the movie "Pitch Black" right now. The monsters are flying out of their holes and swarms the first victim, tearing her to shreads. Bat-like creature that's afraid of the dark. Sounds familiar doesn't it.

    I think you're correct.  I believe the OP was trying to point out that the Kryll were based on the creatures from the movie, though.

    oh yeah. I thought you were going to give everyone some indept Gears backstory claiming how the kryll came to be, because I would have to laugh and just say "uh no, they just watched pitched black was all" :P

    Seeing that the movie was released in 2000, it's the earliest Kryll-like creature I know. Just wondering where those guys came up with the concept. Then again there was the Hithcock's 1963 classic "The Birds"....Come to think of it, there's a bunch of places where they can get the idea of a killer nocturnal swarm :/
