* AdvertisedExtra: Despite being shown prominently in all the trailers and Ray Wise given top-billing, Jack Sr. barely shows up in the film outside of the prologue where his son dies and in the last fifteen minutes during his BigDamnHeroes moment.



* DecoyProtagonist:
** Jack Sr., who is only in the film for about twenty minutes and doesn't do much [[BigDamnHeroes until the ending]].
** Scotty also initially seems to be set up as a main lead character for the students' story arc, despite being an unlikable JerkJock and eventual AssholeVictim.

* PomPomGirl: All three of the cheerleaders among the kids who the Creeper attacks are fairly sympathetic and take their school's sports seriously before more important matters come up. Rhonda is a compassionate ActionGirl, Minxie is a nervous UnhappyMedium, and Chelsea is polite and soft-spoken. The worst thing they do is sneak some cigarettes and (in Chelsea's case) display a few cowardly moments after a night of harrowing monster attacks. * PrecisionFStrike: Jack Jr. delivers one when he really needs to get his father's attention.

*** Subverted with Jonny, who survives despite having not one but two pragmatic moments. First he refuses to let the others back inside after they change their minds about running and shortly afterwards. A bit later, he does let Chelsea, who wasn’t marked by the creeper, back inside, but when Bucky shows back up the two cower in terror and beg him to leave. They don’t go as force him out but are proven right when the creeper does arrive right behind him, and might killed all of them if not for the arrival of The Taggart's.



** Jack Sr., who is only in the film for about twenty minutes and doesn't do much [[BigDamnHeroes until the ending]]. His name isn't even mentioned.
*** technically it is, just not altogether, he refers to his son as Jack jr. once, making him Jack sr. And one of the kids in the final scene mentions that the family’s surname is Taggart.

* HopeSpot: [[spoiler:Jack Sr. successfully saves Double D and deals significant damage to the Creeper, but the creature goes into hibernation at the last second and can't be killed]].


Added DiffLines:

* {{Irony}}: The end of the movie demonstrates that the Creeper has absolutely no choice in its hibernation cycle; when the time limit runs out, it has to go back to sleep no matter the given situation. However, this cycle [[spoiler:ends up saving the Creeper's life at least for the moment, as it goes back into hibernation before Jack Sr. can finish it off]].


Added DiffLines:

* TimeSkip: The final scene takes place 23 years after the climax. [[spoiler:The Taggarts are shown to have turned the Creeper's hibernating body into a tourist attraction. Jack Sr. is still alive and waiting to shoot the Creeper with a harpoon the second it wakes up, which he expects to be any day now]].

--> '''D''': You listen to me you piece of shit! He looked at you too, "bro". I saw it and you did too. He looked at you and ''smiled''. And when you made Jake take the lights off him, he could have looked at you twice and licked his fucking lips but we don't know that! So you keep your little list. When he comes after you, and I hope he does, I'm getting as far away from your sorry ass as possible. Time to go is right. I'm gonna go find that farm. You wanna keep this bus? Then you sit in it, right under that big hole. See how long you last.

Added DiffLines:

* RecurringExtra: One of the four girls on the bus with the boys’ basketball team spends the movie trying to avoid the Creeper’s attention like most of the cast, never really speaking up, establishing her role in the group or interacting with the three cheerleaders or their male companions.
