!!This film contains examples of:
* BigBad: Finnegan, a corrupted nekromancer seeking to unleash demons upon Earth.
* BrainInAJar: [[spoiler:The nekropods Finnegan's using to power the evil game are powered by a nekromancer head, kept alive via DemonicPossession.]]
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Finnegan used to be a nekromancer before being mystically corrupted by the demons. Unfortunately, demonic corruption is incurable.
* CreatureHunterOrganization: The nekromancers, a bunch of wizards who spend their days killing demons before they TakeOverTheWorld.
* EvilMatriarch: Finnegan is Howard's mother, who nearly devoured his soul as a small child. His father spirited him away in a HeroicSacrifice.
* ForceFeeding: Finnegan does an unusual version of this to Howard, by trying to force a soul into the back of his neck to corrupt him. The other nekromancers rescue him.
* HauntedTechnology: The main antagonists are demons that attack people through a mobile game.
* HeroicLineage: Nekromancy is a genetic trait, and only the children of nekromancers can become nekromancers themselves.
* HorrorDoesntSettleForSimpleTuesday: Christmas
* HumanSacrifice: Ancient human sacrifice is how the demons got to Earth in the first place.
* KickTheDog: Finnegan pretending to be a loving mother to Howard so she can trick him into getting possessed. Even worse, it's revealed that [[spoiler:she's powering her nekropods by decapitating nekromancers and keeping their heads alive inside them.]]
* OurDemonsAreDifferent: These are evil spirits summoned by BloodMagic, eat souls and have recently figured out how to travel through the Internet. Their true forms resemble glowing green humanoids or black smoke clouds, but they can only interact with the material world by fatally possessing a human.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: These are spirits that are InvisibleToNormals, but can be seen by nekromancers. Most are barely conscious and don't try to interact with the human world, but ones bound to Earth by nekromancy latch onto their resurrector. They have purple eyes, can teleport through shadows, and have the ability to distort their bodies.
* TheParagonAlwaysRebels: Finnegan used to be one of the best nekromancers to ever live, but the demons managed to mystically corrupt her into joining them, eventually becoming their leader on Earth.
* {{Portmantitle}}: "Necromancer"+"Electronic," with additional XtremeKoolLetterz.
* PoweredByAForsakenChild: [[spoiler:The nekropods are powered by nekromancer heads, kept alive and in constant agony by demons.]]
* ShoutOut: The game the demons attack people through is directly modeled off of ''VideoGame/PokemonGo'', and directly compared to the same in-universe.
* TheSociopath: Finnegan, post-demonic corruption, cares for nothing but her apocalyptic schemes and sadistically devours souls on the regular, but can pretend to be a loving mother to manipulate people.
* SoulEating: Demons subsist by devouring human souls.
* XtremeKoolLetterz: For some reason they spell "necromancer" with a K here.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Finnegan threatens to slaughter an entire room of her henchmen if the evil app plan doesn't work.
