Ken-Curtis

Jerry Farrell, played by Ken Curtis, is a character from the 1959 film The Killer Shrews.

Farrell, the former fiance of Ann Cragis, is a flawed, jealous man. He lives on the remote island with Cragis, her father, Dr. Marlowe Cragis, Dr. Radford Baines, and Mario.

When Captain Thorne Sherman and Rook Griswold arrive with supplies, it's not long before his jealousy of Thorne takes shape.

While they try to survive the bloodthirsty shrews attack, Farrell repeatedly attempts to put Thorne in harms way with the hope that Thorne will be killed by the shrews.

As the Cragises and Sherman escape using empty metal drums lashed together, Jerry is killed while trying to flee from the shrews.
