* CompleteMonster: [[SpreeKiller Harry Warden]], the original Miner, is [[AdaptationalVillainy a lot more violent and brutal]] than his counterpart in [[Film/MyBloodyValentine the original film]]. Already a [[{{Jerkass}} thoroughly unpleasant man]] from the beginning, Warden murdered his fellow miners to conserve his own oxygen after an explosion in the mine, butchers the patients in a hospital, and slaughters a number of partygoers at the mine all while making his way towards Tom, who he blames for the explosion. His attempted murder of Tom traumatizes the latter, inspiring him to go on [[JackTheRipoff another Valentine's Day killing spree]] years later while seeing Warden committing the murders.

* AdaptationDistillation: Does a good job adapting the original storyline, streamlining the cast and dropping the annoying friend characters who exist mainly to die in the final act of the film. It also tosses in the bit of fan service of having the main character be called Axel, who many fans of the original film liked [[spoiler:prior to the reveal that he was the killer]] better than the DesignatedHero TJ.

* CompleteMonster: Harry Warden, in a case of AdaptationalVillainy. In the original, he only went after the two admittedly negligent supervisors, with the excuse that he had been driven insane by being forced to eat the corpses of his companions who had died in the cave-in. In the remake however, he is shown to be a cruel and condescending bully who personally kills his fellow trapped miners in order to steal their oxygen supplies. He then slaughters nearly two dozen innocent people (most of them invalid hospital patients and children, according to a newscast) because... he was really pissed off.

* CompleteMonster: Harry Warden. In the original, his actions made sense, as he only killed the two men he blamed for the cave-in. In the remake however, he is shown to be a cruel bully who taunts Tom right before the explosion, then murders his fellow trapped miners simply for the selfish notion that by killing them, HE won't have to worry about them using up the oxygen in the caved in tunnel. Oh, and murdering and dismembering an entire hospital full of people after he wakes up.

* DesignatedHero: Axel is kind of a dick.
** But by the ending he's still willing to ''die'' in order to ensure his wife's safety and tells her she can leave him if she wants. He's also genuinely trying to stop the killer from harming any others. Not really a designated hero, even if he is a dick.

* KarmaHoudini: Tom receives this from the law over his role in the mining accident.
