1* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Did Abel only turn evil after his wife cheated on him and died in a car accident, or was he always unhinged even before that aforementioned incident and only became worse afterward?
2* {{Anvilicious}}:
3** You don't need to be white to be a racist.
4** You can be a racial harassment victim no matter what your skin color is.
5** Some racists are not necessarily hateful towards skin color. Some racists hate interracial couples, which is just as BAD as any other sort of racism.
6** Some racists will make hypocritical exceptions, such as Abel Turner, a racist against the idea of people having interracial sexual desires, enjoying the company of white strippers.
7** Women can grope men, as shown by a female stripper groping the male protagonist.
8** Abuse of a position of power is a thing.
9* BrokenBase: Over the ending. [[spoiler:Some consider Abel going AxeCrazy and trying to kill the protagonists to be unrealistic, making him into an easy villain and just overall being there for a climax, whilst others think that it makes sense given his growing antagonistic attitude towards Chris and Lisa]]
10* JerkassWoobie: Even though Abel is racist to the couple, it's hard not to sympathize with him once you learn about his backstory.
11* MoralEventHorizon: At the end, [[spoiler:Abel totally crosses the line when he tries to kill Chris and Lisa]].
