Short description

The Swamp Thing returns to battle the evil Dr. Arcane, who has a new science lab full of creatures transformed by genetic mutation, and chooses Heather Locklear as his new object of affection.

What's left behind the scenes

After Christopher Reeve, Dick Durock became the first actor to play the same role in multiple DC Comics film adaptations.
The Swamp Thing was created by Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson and first appeared in House of Secrets #92 in 1971.
Director Jim Wynorski was given 30 days to shoot the film, and he completed it in 27.
Heather Locklear's role as Abigail, while she was a budding film actress, was named the worst role of the year by the Golden Raspberry Award organizers.
