-->'''Stone:''' Paranoid, huh?
* PsychicPowers: Stone has a mysterious psychic connection to the killer; he can predict where he first strikes upon his return and sense his presence by hearing the killer's beating heart. Dick Durking thinks it's because he's a Scorpio.

* ByTheBookCop: Dick Durkin is much more mindful of proper police procedure and much calmer than Stone due to his past education on killers and psychopaths. Subverted towards the end when he realizes that they're up against a supernatural monstrosity and he becomes just as gun-happy as Stone.

* SerialKiller
SerialKiller: Stone is pursuing a serial killer who cuts out his victims' hearts to eat them and has a personal vendetta with Stone. Subverted in that it turns out it is actually a giant monster with unexplained motives for killing people, although presumably intelligent.
* SkepticNoLonger: Detective Dick Durkin refuses to believe that the SerialKiller he and Harley Stone (his partner) are tracking isn't actually a human being at all, but rather some kind of monster. And then he runs face-to-face with the thing.
--> '''Stone:''' Did you see him?
--> '''Durkin:''' That wasn't a him, that was a fucking ''it''!
** Seeing the monster also leads to Durbin's line, "We need to get bigger guns!", which under the circumstances was a very rational reaction.
