* KnightOfCerebus: While the film was already very dark with its MindScrew elements and the demons tormenting the heroes in disturbing ways, there's an element of BlackComedy to them. This ceases the moment the Demon Lord appears, [[ShooAwayTheClowns with the imps proceeding to disappear as well]] to signal the change in tone. Unlike them, its presence is played as straight as possible as an ominous and imposing figure- setting up the darkest part of the story.
