Short description

Mutated by his own secret formula, Dr. Alec Holland becomes Swamp Thing, a half-human, half-plant superhero who will stop at nothing to rescue government agent Alice Cable and defeat his evil arch nemesis...even if it costs him his life.

What's left behind the scenes

Wes Craven (1939-2015) wanted Ray Wise to be in makeup constantly, but he turned out to be so unlike Dick Durock (1937-2009) that all of this footage went to waste and was not used. And before that, Craven shot every scene with the Swamp Creature twice – once with Wise and once with Durock.
