Apparently a last minute project (or a possible mutation failure), little is known about the Lab Monsters. They have the ability to scale the ceilings and can only be spotted by their shadows, preferring to stay out of sight and then attack from above with their curved claw.

ROLE IN RESIDENT EVIL:

They infest the maze-like passages in the laboratory found in Resident Evil and are apparently drawn toward heat though they eventually move to the much colder "O"-room. The bazooka or the Python works best against these guys but you can easily bypass them by running around the ones on the ceiling.
