Skeleton Man is a 2004 sci-fi/horror movie starring Casper van Dien and Michael Rooker. The film concerns an undead, Grim-Reaper-style killer who stalks a group of mercenaries. The movie seems to rip quite a few elements from Predator.

The following weapons were used in the film Skeleton Man:

WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!

Assault rifles

Colt M16

Security personnel use M16s in the first plant that Skeleton Man assaults. Some members of the Special Forces squad also carry it.

The original M16, the first version, firing in a 20-round magazine, adopted in large numbers by the U.S. Air Force in Vietnam. This has the original 3-prong flash hider. It would later be replaced by the upgraded M16A1 - 5.56x45mm

AK-47 Derivative

The helicopter that provides fire support for the team has two gunners, the first of whom carries an AK-47 derivative.

Type I AK-47, hybrid stamped/milled receiver with prototype slab sided magazine - 7.62x39mm

Heckler & Koch HK33

A member of the Special Forces team is armed with HK33.

Heckler & Koch HK33A2 Select Fire rifle with Factory 25rd Magazine - 5.56x45mm

Carbines

Colt M4A1 Carbine

The M4A1 carbine is used by numerous team members.

Colt M4 Carbine with 4 position collapsible stock - 5.56x45mm

Submachine guns

Heckler & Koch MP5

Quite a few characters are armed with this weapon, including a soldier running from the Skeleton Man, a few members of the Special Forces team and the power plant security personnel.

Heckler & Koch MP5A2 with early "slimline" handguard - 9x19mm

Heckler & Koch MP5K

One Special Forces carries a MP5K.

Heckler & Koch MP5K - version with SEF Plastic Trigger Pack - 9x19mm. This is a very well worn Motion picture weapon

Shotguns

Armsel Striker

Cpt. Leary uses a sheriff's Striker to confront the Skeleton Man at the climax.

Armsel Striker Shotgun - 12 gauge. Strikers are identified not only by the unique 'knob' that serves as the winding key in front of the drum, but also the drum advance lever on the back of the receiver. The Cobray guns don't have this lever.

Unidentified shotgun

Used by the sheriff.

An unnamed character uses this to try to fend off the undead killer towards the beginning.

Pistols

Beretta 92F

Used by most of the Special Forces, as well as in law enforcement hands. The power plant security personnel also have it when they confront the killer.

Beretta 92F - 9x19mm. The cosmetic differences are very slight and hard to see between this gun and the newer 92FS. Most of the changes are the inner workings of the gun.

Colt M1911A1

Pre-War Colt M1911A1 - Commercial Model known as the "Colt Government Model" - .45 ACP. This has a deep Colt factory blued finish, common for commercial variants before and after the war.

Explosives

Landmine

Captain Leary is seen improvising explosives to create a landmine in an attempt to destroy Skeleton Man.

Fragmentation grenade

Towards the climax, Leary booby traps certain passageways in the power plant to halt Skeleton Man's advance. The device is also seen earlier when he fashions a landmine.

M67 fragmentation grenade

Launchers

M79

The second gunner in the heli carries an M79. He fires it at Skeleton Man after the first gunner is killed.

M79 grenade launcher - 40x46mm

Miscellaneous

Bow and arrow

The Skeleton Man carries a bow with a seemingly infinite amount of quivers. It is used to kill a civilian and then also used to shoot down the helicopter.

Unidentified weapons

When the team first breaks out their weapons, a few unidentified firearms are visible.
