    My friend has been recommending the BBC show PRIMEVAL to me for months, so i finally sat down and watched a few episodes.

    The basic plot is that temporal anomalies are bringing animals from the past and future to the present. One of these creatures is a "Future Predator" that bears an uncanny resemblance to a Rakghoul.

    Just wanted to throw it out there if anyone's interested.

    Meh. They look just like the bad guys from I Am Legend, too. Nothing new here -- rakghouls are just one version of zombies that got used for Star Wars.

    Two things.

    -Primeval is a great show. Puts a whole new spin on the MOTW sci-fi show with great SFX

    And

    -The future predators are very rakghoulish. Much more so than I Am Legend. Sounds like Helen Cutter found the Muur Talisman...

    -The Rebel Gungan

    Just so you know, those look nothing like the guys from I Am Legend, the movie or the book. (Those were vampires-beasts)

    And yea, they prolly ripped off rakghouls..

    The IAL guys look more like Blade 2 Reapers to this one:
