CHILL FACTOR movie quote: I AM BECOME DEATH...

When Doc sees the destruction of Horn Island he quotes a famous passage.

"Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds", verse 32 from Chapter 11 of the Bhagavad Gita

J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, is said to have thought the same when he witnessed the first atomic bomb explosion.

I thought this was a highlight from the movie. Good dialogue in that moment.
