1* After the bats fly out of the cave entrance:
2--> '''Holly:''' ''(impersonating the Count from Series/SesameStreet)'' One bat, two bats, ''fifty'' bats!
3--> '''Beth:''' Holly, fuck off.
4* "The Queen is dead. Long live... the fuckin'... queen!" (Context: Said while attempting to stretch a leg over one's head before promptly falling over.)
5* "I'm an English teacher, not fucking ''Franchise/TombRaider''."
6* An [[BlackComedy extremely dark example]], but Beth's AudienceSurrogate moment after [[spoiler:Holly]] breaks her leg and the full gruesome mess is revealed:
7--> Oh, that's ''fucking disgusting''!
8** And immediately after, [[TheMedic when Sam]] mentions she needs to push the bone back in, the deadpan reaction is darkly humorous.
9-->I... hate you.
10-->I know.
11** It's also oddly [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoment sweet:]] Sam and Holly have only known each other for about a day, but they're comfortable enough to smack-talk each other and see it for the [[InsultOfEndearment friendly gesture it is.]]
12* A Behind The Scenes example (discussed on the DVD's special features) came as the result of some EnforcedMethodActing. Throughout filming, the Crawlers' appearance was kept secret from the actresses, so that their reactions would be more genuine to the first appearance. Unfortunately, this went [[GoneHorriblyRight horribly right]] as the women scattered off the set entirely.
13** Other Meta Funny Moments come from seeing the actors all done up in the crawler makeup...and seeing them joking and dancing around while looking like horrifying monsters.
