- One pick is not Arnold, Rachel or Sharon but the eye bulges, the best in movie history, since the pain is understood even in an alien setting; the only comparison is Hostel.
- A second voice takes that pick in a different direction: body horror, as the most mainstream version of David Cronenberg-style body horror with the mutants, Kuato and the eye bulges.
- A third voice is torn between Arnold and Verhoeven, noting how hard the film was to make before CGI, but leans to Arnold for buying and shaping the script and for the three-movie Apex that made him one of the five biggest stars of his lifetime.
