** Likewise, as a Creator/HannaBarbera property, this isn't the first time one of their works was dramatically re-purposed into something more adult-orientated than before; Creator/AdultSwim got their start by remixing HB properties into shows like ''WesternAnimation/SpaceGhostCoastToCoast'' or ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw''.

* UnpopularPopularCharacter: Stevie is clearly TheScrappy InUniverse both on-set and off, but several viewers have grown to like him, either for his hilariously dickish attitude or for his status as an EscapistCharacter (who ''wouldn't'' want to perform with the Splits like he does?)

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: When the movie was released to DVD, Amazon categorized it as a Kids and Family film because it was based on a children's show. Not only is it a horror movie based on the show, but it contains many gruesome deaths, along with a few instances of mild swearing and a scene in which a character goes onstage while drunk.

* SpiritualAdaptation: As the actual film based off of it is currently stuck in DevelopmentHell, this is the closest thing we have to a ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' movie.

I am not actually sure that it is either narm trope, because the movie is, to my knowledge, a deliberate horror-comedy.


* {{Narm}}: Each of deaths are supposed to come off as horrific, but they end up becoming so ridiculous and over-the-top that it's impossible to take any of it seriously. The fact that some of the fatalities were {{Asshole Victim}}s also helps. Although considering this was a [=SyFy=] channel horror film based on a ''kid's show'' of all things, on top of the movie's darkly humorous tone overall, the deaths could also just be NarmCharm at its finest.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: Zigzagged. On one hand, some people were open to the idea of a horror movie based on HostileAnimatronics thanks to the popularity of ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys''. On the other hand, the fact the movie is based on ''a real kid's show'' and is also [[BloodierAndGorier way more violent]] than one would expect has definitely turned some people away.

** While the gore effects are apropriately disgusting and surprisingly convincing for a Syfy movie, the blood splatters that sometimes accompany them are obviously added in post production.

* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: A number of people are put off by how similar the film seems to ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys''. See Older Than They Think above. Ironically there are rumors that the screenplay for this film was in fact originally supposed to be for a FNAF film but it fell apart due to disagreements with the creator so WB re-purposed it into a splits movie instead.
