* TheScottishTrope: Averted. When Nadja and Laszlo are talking about a particularly embarrassing vampire orgy, Nadja seems like she's invoking this trope only for Laszlo to turn it on its head immediately.

'''Laszlo:''' I don't give a fuck, his name was Mike.\\
'''Nadja:''' ''Fucking'' Mike!

* BrickJoke: Nadja mentions that throwing a bad orgy will cause you to be ostracized in the vampire community, and that vampires will typically stay in their bat forms while refusing to transform back out of shame. After the main characters' efforts to host the bi-annual vampire orgy go poorly, Nandor goes to check on Laszlo and Nadja...and walks in on them in the middle of having sex, both in their bat forms.

* StylisticSuck: Laszlo claims that all the pornographic films he's starred in over the years still hold up and are "very, ''very'' erotic". The examples we see are full of bad acting and corny dialogue, and Nadja even admits that she found all of it boring.
