My The Terror-induced crush on Adam Nagaitis has led me places I wouldn't go with a gun, and after seeing him use a sledgehammer for evil as the explicitly Hickey-influenced gangster Franny Sutton in modern-day cop show The Responder, I'm kind of disappointed we didn't get to see him take a swing at someone with a caulking mallet in The Terror.
I mean, look at that potential weapon! This picture doesn't even give a great idea of how big a caulking mallet isโthese things are HEFTY.
Can't you imagine?
Anyway, if your Age of Sail-set TV series is going to have a major antagonist whose job is to be a ship's caulker, I think you should let him do some violence with the tools of the trade. As a treat.
