* AllMythsAreTrue: [[spoiler:The curse is real.]]
* AxeCrazy: Aunt Helene is the most openly psychotic. Bonus points for her WeaponOfChoice being a battle-axe.
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Completely averted. Grace is filthy, covered in blood, [[spoiler:and has a hole blown in her hand]] by the end of the film.
* BlackComedy: It’s a film in which people are gruesomely murdered, but the deaths are treated as annoying mistakes or blunders.
* BloodSplatteredWeddingDress: Grace's dress is covered in blood by the end.
* BloodyHilarious: Many of the deaths, [[spoiler:but especially the family ''exploding'' at the end]].
* CombatStilettos: Averted, Grace trades her high heels for tennis shoes.
* DangerTakesABackseat: Heroic variant. [[spoiler: Grace comes to in the backseat of a car as Stevens is driving her back to the house. She kicks him in the face, causing a crash that kills him.]]
* DealWithTheDevil: The De Lomas family made a pact with Satan generations ago. He gave them great wealth, and the means to gain more; all he required were sacrifices. Goats usually do, but a human sacrifice is required (possibly once per generation) as well.
* EnfanteTerrible: Emilie and Fitch's two sons are just as crazy and murderous as their parents.
* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Alex spends most of the film solidly on Grace's side, to the point of having to be handcuffed to a bedpost by his family to stop him from sabotaging their efforts to kill her. Sadly, the deaths of his brother and mother, coupled with Grace's decision that she just can't be with him after everything that's happened over the course of the movie, cause him to turn against her at the last moment.]]
* GoldDigger: Daniel's wife very clearly and openly married him for his money.
* IJustShotMarvinInTheFace: Emilie. ''Repeatedly''. Eventually, the rest of the family stops giving her shooting weapons.
* InfantImmortality: [[spoiler:Averted, the two children also explode (offscreen) when the family is wiped out by Le Bael.]]
* KillEmAll: [[spoiler:The entire De Lomas family (even Emilie and Fitch’s sons) is dead by the end of the film.]]
* MyGreatestSecondChance: As a child, Daniel turned Helene's new husband over to his family. [[spoiler:His helping Grace is implied to be him doing what he should have done then.]]
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:Daniel ends up trying to help Grace escape, but he is then shot by his wife Charity for dooming them without a sacrifice for their ritual.]]
* ThickerThanWater: Alex spends most of the movie helping Grace, but his mother believes that when it comes down to it he will choose them over her. [[spoiler:She's right]].
** [[spoiler:As it turns out, this does not apply to Daniel]].
* WhatYouAreInTheDark: Daniel catches Grace alone in the study. He states he cannot help her, but ''does'' let her run and gives her a head start. [[spoiler:Ultimately, he chooses to help her escape.]]
** [[spoiler:Alex later catches also finds Grace alone, but as she just killed his mother and (indirectly) got his brother killed, he turns on her]].
* WouldHurtAChild: After Georgie [[spoiler: shoots Grace in the hand]], she punches him in the face.
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Grace tries to convince Daniel that he is this. [[spoiler:She's proven correct, though it gets him killed.]]

* YouKilledMyFather: [[spoiler:Mother, technically. Alex was always willing to help Grace survive until he watches her beat Becky to death in front of him, at which point he gives her up for the ritual.]]
* YouWillBeSpared: [[spoiler:After killing the entire De Lomas family for failing to kill Grace, Mr. Le Bael allows her to leave instead of killing her. Possibly because, as the family members stated, one has to play the game before becoming a family member. Her survival prevents her from being counted as one.]]
