3	As this is from the mind who brought you ''Film/TheThing1982, Film/PrinceOfDarkness'' and ''Film/TheyLive''; this LighterAndSofter film is bound to have some elements of horror, especially when black hellish magic is involved.
4	----
5	* The Wing Kong, who are {{Psycho Knife Nut}}s complete with various weapons and paycheck under an EvilSorcerer, but their kidnapping of Miao Yin is very similar to how underground sex traffickers take their victims, which is arguably scarier than their basic concept as {{Mook}}s. They also involve themselves in gang wars in the middle of the streets in daylight, [[SarcasmMode ah swell]].
6	** Speaking of their boss, Lo Pan is an immortal pale wizard that can shoot light from his eyes and mouth who can change from an old man to an EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette by lighting up his bones.
7	* Hell of the Upside-Down Sinners, one of the various implied torture chambers, filled with decaying corpses of captured victims drowned to death while being upside-down.
8	* The creatures under Lo Pan's control including a red eye locked jaw ape creature, a four armed big eyed eel snake creature and the creepy-faced beholder thing done in StopMotion covered [[EyesDoNotBelongThere in eyes, even the mouth and nose]].
9	** Said ape creature even returns at the end of the movie for one last JumpScare, with it serving as the very last shot of the film.
10	*** The comic subverts it as the ape creature is now Jack's pet of sorts and is given a name: [[FluffyTheTerrible Pete]].
11	* Thunder [[BodyHorror swelling up in a gruesome detail and then exploding like a balloon]] (pictured above), which could give the infamous ExplosiveDecompression scene from ''Film/TotalRecall1990'' a run for its money.
12	* The centipede-like ''thing'' that attacks the heroes in the bowels of the earth. Egg drives it off with a grenade, but not before one of the poor Chang-Sing RedShirts is EatenAlive. Jack's freak out says it all, really.
13	-->'''Egg:''' It will come out no more!
