* UnfortunateImplications: The film was accused of being filled with homophobia, as the gay characters featured in the Rectum Club are perverts who hit on Marcus, and one of them tries to rape him. While the almost-rapist is beaten to death, another gay man watches and masturbates. Played by [[CreatorCameo Gaspar Noé himself.]]
* TrueArtIsAngsty
* {{Squick}}
* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: RoaringRampageOfRevenge movies are pretty common, and it's rare to show what that'd actually be like in real life.
* NightmareFuel
* NauseaFuel: This film makes few allowances for those that suffer from motion sickness. The vertiginous camerawork and garish red lighting combined with the intense droning soundtrack caused a few people to vomit at the premiere. Low-frequency sound was also used in order to disorientate the audience.
* MoralEventHorizon: 
** Marcus' initial fight with the suspected rapist, and then Pierre's extinguisher bludgeoning of his face.
** La Tenia when he rapes and beats Alex.
* HarsherInHindsight: Something revealed towards the very end -- [[spoiler: namely that Alex was pregnant]], makes the events shown at the beginning of the film seem even worse.
** After the rape, the movie becomes increasingly lighter and happier, which makes the contrast with the disturbing start of the movie even nastier.
*** In particular, the main characters have a slightly kinky sex scene near the end of the movie that's completely cringe-inducing, knowing how their day ends.
