** Richard's frequent references to UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar, and pop culture related to it such as ''Film/ApocalypseNow'' and ''Series/{{MASH}}'', are absent in the movie, although he does look in on a theater showing a piece of ''Film/ApocalypseNow'' in Thailand towards the beginning. It is a part of the famous Napalm Bombing scene. [[note]] "Bomb them to stone age, son" [[/note]]

* AntiVillain / NobleDemon: [[spoiler:In the movie, the head farmer appears to be genuine when he says that he doesn't want to hurt anyone and just wants to farm his marijuana in peace. Case in point, the revolver he gives to Sal to kill Richard with turns out to be unloaded, and judging by his smirk when he sees everyone else's horrified panic that Sal would have actually killed Richard, he was planning on getting them all to leave without killing anyone else. In the book, he's darker but still prefers to scare the beachers than kill them.]]

* DrugsAreGood: The characters smoke pot casually and rejoice when they discover a large field of cannabis plants. Averted when they realize that it's being guarded by armed men, which causes alot of negative drama.

* TooDumbToLive: When confronted by the visibly armed marijuana plantation farmers - one of whom is obviously nervous - the leading American tourist keeps jerking around and doesn't keep his hands in plain view, then makes a sudden move towards their leader. Unsurprisingly the panicky kid instantly fires a burst into his torso.

Proper example indentation and hiding a zero-context trope.

* HiddenPurposeTest: [[spoiler:The head farmer at the climax gives Sal a gun to kill Richard. Sal takes him literally and pulls the trigger, but there's no bullet in the chamber and his actual goal is to scare the rest of the group into leaving rather than stay under the leadership of a murderer.]] His smirk after Sal 'passes' his test says it all.
