* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: As car goes crashing down the hill, there is a moment with a random couple dreamily staring at each other, sipping wine, and not seeing the car go past them.

** Given the national discussion of police brutality in TheNewTens and TheNewTwenties, the line, "What are you doing, firing at civilians? That's for the police to do!" is either [[HarsherInHindsight extremely uncomfortable]], [[BlackComedy even funnier]], or both, depending on how dark your sense of humor is. Having a black woman be the one to speak the line just makes it even more darkly comedic.

* {{Adorkable}}: Norman is closed-off, introverted, a huge horror nerd, and low on the social ladder, he's also a [[NiceGuy]] who's sympathetic background makes him all the CreepyCute to fans.

Added DiffLines:

** Many of the ghosts Norman says hi to in the opening scene (which is also their one and only scene, except for his grandmother), like the soldier, paraglider, and greaser delinquent, have their fans.
** The vending machine customer, who is more interested in getting his chips than running away from the zombies, his shotgun-totting friend Crystal, the little girl with the flaming teddy bear, and Deputy Dwayne are among the more interesting and amusing members of the crowd of JerkAss townspeople.


Added DiffLines:

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Norman's parents' feelings about Mr. Prenderghast ([[TangledFamilyTree who is either Sandra's brother or the uncle of one of them]]) having visions and ostracization similar to Norman, dying, and having been right all along are never brought up.
