Daylight Horror is no longer a trope, don't link it anywhere.

* DaylightHorror: The first murder is the only one that happens during the day but because of the cold, isolated landscape and the offbeat music it is one of the eeriest scenes.

Geiger, chained to a wall, breaks a thumb to free himself from a chain and get close enough to Frau Brückner and beat the crap out of her and give Jennifer a chance to escape. He doesn't beg Jennifer to stick around and try to free him either. Brückner manages to kill him off screen before surprising Jennifer at the end of the film.]]

** Also, Inspector Rudolf Geiger. [[spoiler: When Jennifer trapped in the watery vat of decomposing bodies, and Frau Brückner is stomping on her fingers to prevent her escape, Geiger, who is chained to a wall, painfully BREAKS one of his thumbs so he can slide one of the cuffs off of his hand, allowing him to get close enough to wrap an arm around Frau Brückner's neck and give her one Hell of a beat down, which then gives Jennifer enough time to get out of the pit and escape.]]

** Also, Morris Shapiro, The Corvino family attorney. [[spoiler: When she finally reaches him by phone, Shapiro immediately beats feet to come and collect Jennifer, and then spends the last act of the film tearing around the countryside trying to find her. Even cooler, Jennifer mentioned that she wanted to leave because she didn't want to be killed by the serial killer. As Shapiro goes to more and more places Jennifer could be, and fails to find her, he opens a wooden box and arms himself with a Colt .45 pistol, recognizing that Jennifer is likely in danger, and he needs to find her as fast as possible, and should be armed when he does.]]

* HelpMistakenForAttack: When Jennifer [[spoiler: is in the basement trying to use the phone she dropped, a chained and bloodied Geiger reaches through the wall and grabs her.

* PoliceAreUseless: Only slightly subverted. [[spoiler: Insp. Geiger, who has been following Jennifer, only tracks down Frau Brückner (Who is shielding her son, the film's killer,) because Jennifer is at her home. She gets the drop on Geiger and injures him before chaining him to a wall. Geiger does get a hero moment, when he painfully breaks a thumb to free one of his chains and get a hold of Frau Brückner to give her a beat down, but the bloodied Frau Brückner confronts and attempts to kill Jennifer at the film's end, revealing that she managed to regain the upper hand and finish Geiger off.]]
