this is for me, Will, and the two Lexx friends we have (including my husband)

No one:...

Literally no one:...

My brain today:

Why.

[greencheekconure27]

I wonder if Kai from Lexx was inspired by Cesare from The Cabinet of Dr.Caligari.

Similarities:

Assassins controlled by the main villain

Are stored in a box most of the time and only wake up to do a job

Villain loses control of them eventually ( happens early on with Kai. Cesare is a bit more subtle- he was meant to kill the girl but can't do it and abducts her instead)

Not fully aware of their actions when working as an assassin

Black hair,pale face, tight black clothing, handsome

Have a harmless "real world" counterpart (harmless psychiatric patient and eccentric actor)

One of the villains has a scientific interest in them

Are somewhere inbetween life and death ( Cesare is technically alive but sleeps in a coffin-like box most of the time, Kai is undead)

Both are shown contemplating flowers & looking pretty at some point

Both live in a weird stylised universe with weird stylised sets

die in the end (okay, so Cesare turns out to be alive in the twist ending, therefore I can pretend Kai is too😏😝)

Thanks for listening to my TED talk

I made a Kai bot on janitor.

I haven't really tested him. Happy to receive any feedback!
