Unfortunately, the Collector was not killed, as he had escaped the trap and ambushed the ambulance carrying Arkin. Arkin and Hannah then escape the house, which detonates from the explosions the Collector is seemingly killed in the explosion. Once the collector re-enters the home, Arkin manages to kill the Collector's dog and lure the fiendish man into one of his own traps, supposedly trapping the Collector inside the house. He then takes the dog with him into the house to hunt down Arkin and Hannah, after Arkin frees himself from his binds. The Collector distracts him long enough for his attack dog (seen near the beginning of the film) to kill him. The Collector is drawn outside by a police officer responding to Jill's 911 call, who confronts the Collector at gunpoint. The Collector knocks out Arkin and drags him to the basement, where he hammers off a tooth and allow roaches to feed off of a wound on Arkin's belly. During the ensuing struggle, Arkin rips off his mask, seeing his unknown face. Arkin sends Hannah down a laundry chute where she hides, but the Collector attacked Arkin before he could go down the chute. However, the Collector saw this coming and used Larry as a decoy, so the trap killed Larry instead. He is stopped from killing (or presumably collecting) the last member, Hannah, by ex-convict Arkin O'Brien (who is there to steal a ruby), who prepares a trap with Hannah to electrocute and kill the Collector. He then captured Jill, but not before she was able to make a 911 call (she escapes but is shot with large nails when she triggers a trap). Chad attacked him and was killed when the Collector pushed him into a room filled with several bear traps. He later watches Jill and her boyfriend Chad have sex on the kitchen table seeing that Jill has some body parts to add to the collection before they notice him watching. When Arkin tries to escape with Victoria, she bumps into the Collector, who chains her to a gasoline-filled bathtub and sews her mouth shut, which kills her. He begins by dragging Michael to the basement, chops his ear off, disembowels him and hangs him by his feet. Before he begins his assault, he places his traps systematically, locks all the doors and boards up the windows to prevent any escape. Later, he arrives at the home of the Chase family, posing as an exterminator to gain access to their house. In the first film, the Collector targets an old couple named Gena and Larry, killing Gena while stuffing Larry in a red trunk and adding him to his collection. The collection was kept at an abandoned hotel, which was rigged with traps to kill off any would-be escapees and intruders. Later on in life, the Collector would himself become a licensed entomologist and presumably led a legitimate life, but underneath this was a murder and kidnapping operation, in which the man, called "the Collector" by the authorities and his victims, would target whole families and kill all but one member, who would have the misfortune of becoming a part of his "collection", and would either be killed through gruesome experiments (after which his/her body parts and bones would be reassembled to look like insects) or driven completely insane. Only his son survived, but the experience warped his mind. One day, the father went insane due to digesting chemicals meant for taxidermy and killed his family, stuffed them, and then placed them at the table on Thanksgiving and ate with them as though they were still alive. The man who would become the Collector was the son of a museum owner and entomologist.
