Mutant Chronicles, \'Canteen\' Flashlight

original movie prop

This is one of the \'canteen\' flashlights used by most of the members of the Mutant Machine hunting party. I call it a \'canteen\' flashlight because it\'s made out of a real canteen (in fact, it\'s an Ikea canteen). The production cut these open (you can see the bottom is partially cut free), and a German-made light assembly was mounted into it. There\'s a battery holder on the inside, and a switch was added to the top. The back has clips for holding on a belt.
These lights were used by several members of the team (although some members had a different kind of light). Here are some screen caps of Mitch Hunter (Thomas Jane) and Severian (Anna Walton) are frequently seen using these. They are all unique, having been hand made and painted by the production, so I will probably be able to screen-match this once I get it on Blu-Ray.
