Did anyone else REALLY not want him to die? He was my favourite character. I really felt for him when Julia came out of the elevator with that guy. And when Nell ran into him when she was looking for the laundry, was that where he lived? Cuz i saw a couch and everything and i was just wondering.

OMG yes! I was watching this again today and I actually went "Awww bless him!" when Julia came out of the elevator with her date, and when he said "I think you'd look pretty at any size". They never explained though what was up with him, whether he was just weird, or whether they just used him to make us think he was the killer.
I think he did live there, seeing as he was the repair guy.

Hehe. I don't know why I like him.
I actually did believe it was him, I think cos the killer looks like a person to begin with. That movie confuses me.

Yeah I like the the guy who plays him too (Adam Gierasch) but I can't find any infomation on him anywhere.
I think he did swallow it, but even if he didn't, it's still really gross that he even put it in his mouth. -

I had a look on here but there wasn't much, neither was there much on Google
EwwI remember they said they were real teeth but he put gum in his mouth. Still a horrible thought!

I knew he wasn't the killer because in movies they try to make you believe someone is the killer when they're really not.
Anyway, I thought he was so cute. I remember thinking if I was Julia, I would have started flirting with him. -

I also guessed that he was not the killer because it was too obvious; he was a creepy weird guy; why? I don't know, it doesn't explain it but his death was pretty good. I don't which was worse his or the drill thing.

I actually took the Ned character froma competely different angle. I thought he was WORKING for or with the Killer. Why did I think this at first? Because for one he seemed to know what the Teeth were all about, plus he was all jealous about Julia and her guy, and then she gets killed, which seemed too much like a coincidence.plus he was weird lol. But then I scratched that theory when he died.
If he WAS linked with CoffinBaby I would have liked this film a lot more.
(not saying I didnt like it, because i thought it was a nice breath of fresh air for the Horror market, which needs some new masterpieces to make it popular again.) -

I knew from the start that Ned wasnt the killer. IMHO, they laid the creepy maintenance guy thing way too thick. I expected it to be one of those The one you lest expect type scenarios, so I was honing in on the super, the old manhell, even her husband (Steve?)!
So I was wrong about all those, but at least I was right that Ned wasnt the killer. It was a bummer to see him go out like that.
I roared, and I rampaged, and I got bloody satisfaction. -

I just thought he was the standard horror movie "creepy guy that knows stuff". Like the old "crazies" that warn of comming peril, or the retard guys that everyone pitties yet it turns out they know more of what is going on then anyone else. To me Ned fit the role perfectly. So I didn't think he was the killer. I didn't mind him dying (but to be fair if it was a cute female in the same role I may have minded). I was however just a little disapointed we never got to find out quite what he knew (it certainly seemed to hint at him knowing something).

If I were Julia I would have been flattered that he'd like me at any size.
I liked him ok (I like weird people, lol), but one thing bothers me (besides the tooth thingI'm glad it was really gum)his hair!
I wish he'd have brushed his hair away from his face more, ya know?
