Barrie Gower, prosthetics designer on TheLastOfUs, discusses creating the bloater's terrifying look.

Haven’t seen HBO’s The Last of Us yet? Then be prepared for a viewing that captures love, loss, and fungi-controlled monsters. Since the series premiered, fans have been introduced to varying classes of Infected. In episode 2, we were brought face to face with the terrifying sight of the Clickers. However, in the show’s latest episode, "Endure and Survive", we are faced with the on-screen debut of an even more deadly being – the Bloater.

When we met the bloater in the Episode 5, the creature emerges from an underground tunnel in the wake of a swarm of Clickers. Reaping heads from shoulders, crushing the bones of those who stood in its way, it became clear quickly that this was the most formidable foe yet. Gower is undeniably a master of creating terrifying creatures, having created the full-body prosthetics for Stranger Things' Vecna, and winning four Emmys over the course of his career.

Are The Bloaters Undefeatable? There is a consensus of certain death when facing a Clicker unprepared in the games, but with a Bloater – and reinforced by its terrifying TV debut – it seems a smarter decision to just run. Given their immense size and lumbering movements, getting away from it might be doable. As seen in the scene, rapid gunfire seems to have no effect on the creature and close combat is inadvisable.
