13	!!''Judy'' contains the following tropes:
14
15	* AbusiveParents: Jack, who is careless about his son's wellbeing, and outright molests his stepdaughter Jamie.
16	* AssholeVictim: Both Jack and his wife, but Jack more so.
17	* CharacterDevelopment: If you've seen ''Film/SleepawayCamp'', you'll see Judy is the AlphaBitch, TheBully and the AssholeVictim. Here, she helps children who are abused, as both a helpline counselor and a vigilante serial killer.
18	* EveryoneHasStandards: Former AlphaBitch, and now SerialKiller, Judy goes on a tirade about how people like Jack and his new wife make her sick, for hurting their children, or allowing their children to be hurt, and not doing a thing about it.
19	* HateSink: Jack is a target in Judy's crusade against AbusiveParents. He openly neglects his ex-wife and son, laughs at his son's bullying and hospitalization even though it nearly killed him. On top of that, he openly sexually abusing his stepdaughter, Jamie. When Judy tortures him for his abuse, he's completely unrepentant, cowardly trying to justify himself and arrogantly acting like he's untouchable.
20	* LackOfEmpathy: When Jack hears of his son's bullying and asthma attack, he laughs about it.
21	** Averted with Judy in regard for her motives.
22	* MamaBear: Judy, due to her injuries in the original film, is unable to have children of her own, which is why she's dedicated to help children. That includes the torture and murder of those who hurt them.
23	* MiscarriageOfJustice: Jack plays KarmaHoudini for not paying his ex-wife child support, while she struggles with making ends meet, by claiming that he can't work to pay the money, and his ex can't hire a private investigator to prove otherwise.
24	* MotiveRant[=/=]BreakThemByTalking: Judy tells Jack and his wife that she is protective of children despite being unable to have any, and how people like them make her sick, and that they have it coming.
25	* NotNowKiddo: Jamie's stepmother. It bites her in the ass.
26	* PetTheDog Judy may be an AlphaBitch turned serial killer, but she also works for a hotline to help abused children. We see her hug Jack's stepdaughter and promise things are going to be okay, and feels sorry for Jack's son, ultimately buying him new shoes.
27	* TookALevelInKindness: Being a torturer and murderer aside, compare Judy to how she was in the first ''Film/SleepawayCamp'' to how she is now; she goes from being the camp bully, to an empathetic vigilante who is devoted helping victims of child abuse.
28	* WellIntentionedExtremist: Judy, who resorted to murder for the protection of abused children.
