1* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Plenty of it, given all [[MsFanservice the very sexy ladies]] we see, with the standout being Connie played by Creator/JulianneMoore. Her classy, shiny green dress and [[spoiler: ultimate reveal as the film's resident FemmeFatale]] make this the closest Moore's come to playing another [[Characters/BatmanPoisonIvy deliciously sultry redhead in green]]. Hell, the film noir setting evokes said redhead's appearance in [[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesE5PrettyPoison a certain cartoon]]. Very appropriate.
2* CompleteMonster: The BigBad and his [[TheDragon Dragon]]:
3** [[spoiler:The wealthy [[EvilSorcerer Amos Hackshaw]] who plans to summon the [[EldritchAbomination Outer Gods]] so he can sell out his world for them to turn into "a world of the unburied dead" in exchange for godhood. To do this, Hackshaw focuses decades of his life, including marriage and having a child, to making sure he has the perfect circumstances for the ceremony. Using the masquerade of being an overprotective dad to keep his daughter a suitable VirginSacrifice, Hackshaw then goes about acquiring the [[TomeOfEldritchLore Necronomicon]]. After the book is stolen to prevent the apocalypse, Hackshaw simultaneously hires private eye Phil Lovecraft and mob boss Harry Bordon, the latter of whom he promised lordship over the post-apocalyptic world, to retrieve it. Creating a gargoyle servant to tail Lovecraft, Hackshaw ends up using the creature to eliminate the book's thief and a few other loose ends. After Borden captures Lovecraft, Hackshaw decides that he should be ForcedToWatch as Hackshaw offers his own daughter in sacrifice to Yog-Sothoth]].
