* FirstInstallmentWins: To say the least, this is ''the'' definitive Evanescence album. It's to the extent that they're commonly regarded as a OneHitWonder in terms of albums, as their later work didn't fare nearly as well when Amy Lee took over the band.
* PeripheryDemographic: Even those otherwise turned away from nu metal like this album, perhaps because of the GenreBusting sound. It's to the point where some will try to say that it ''isn't'' nu metal.

* FoeYay: Azazel, buddy, you need to scale back on your obsession with Hobbes just a smidge. And stop calling him [[TermsOfEndangerment "pal"]]. And stop talking about how much fun you're having with him.

* CompleteMonster: Azazel is a sinister demon who likes nothing so much as destroying the lives and names of good men. When [[TheHero Detective Hobbes]] crosses him, Azazel sets about targeting him by [[DemonicPossession possessing Hobbes's mentally handicapped brother]] and making him kill himself. Azazel possesses others and murders others in their bodies, getting them convicted of murder and jumps out just before the execution, leaving the victim to face death for crimes they have no memories of committing. Azazel destroys Hobbes' life and reputation and possesses people to continuously drive him mad from near paranoia. What's worse is Azazel has been walking the earth for thousands of years and his MO has never changed.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The "Hobbes don't take no Cream" scene in the bar. This scene establishes that: 1. Hobbes is a good, honest cop (something the rest of the movie already does). 2. However, he's not judgmental against other cops who ''do'' take "cream" (implied to bribes and/or kickbacks) 3. Hobbes is a known exception to this by his reputation, which kind of means that virtually all other cops out there are ''corrupt''. 4. Despite being corrupt, almost all of these cops are still the "chosen people" who make the world a better place (a questionable assertion in the TheNineties, and HarsherInHindsight today). 5. James Gandolfini's Lou is a somewhat creepy DirtyCop. 6. It's apparently not unusual to order a dozen or so different beers for your group in advance (wouldn't they get warm?). 7.[[ProductPlacement It's better to drink Budweiser than a bunch of micro-brews or imports. Absolutely none of these details are relevant to the rest of the film. Even when Azazel starts implicating Hobbes to make him look like he's dirty, the fact that he's such a straight shooter is never touched upon.
