1 | * SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments: Basically every time the band manages to turn it around on the Nazis is ''amazing.'' Pat's RefugeInAudacity trick, Amber [[spoiler: opening Big Justin up with a boxcutter,]] and [[spoiler: Darcy getting his brains blown out]] probably top the list. |
2 | * CatharsisFactor: [[spoiler:After watching the neo-Nazis slaughter an entire punk band, seeing the final survivors turn the table and kill Darcy is ''incredibly satisfying'']]. |
3 | * CompleteMonster: [[EvilOldFolks Darcy]] is the aging leader of a gang of [[ThoseWackyNazis Neo-Nazis]], out to cover up his massive drug running business when the Ain't Rights band stumbles into it. Though playing himself off as a reasonable man to try to trick the band into surrendering to him and keep his men in line, Darcy [[BadBoss abuses his gang on a whim]] and actually intends to have the entire band either ripped apart by fighting dogs or butchered with machetes, then [[ThisBearWasFramed frame their deaths as wild animal attacks]] to cover his tracks. Darcy maims and kills several of the Ain't Rights this way--having one of his own members shot dead when he tries to help the group escape--and later fatally poisons the drug stash of some of his other minions, killing them all [[YouHaveFailedMe as punishment for unintentionally exposing Darcy's heroin trade]] to the Ain't Rights. |
4 | * CultClassic: This movie did ''[[BoxOfficeBomb astoundingly]]'' poorly in theaters, but between its massive critical acclaim and its almost immediate ValuesResonance, it's picked up a noticeable cult following. |
5 | * SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: |
6 | ** Even in an impressively dark and intense movie such as this, the BrickJoke at the end regarding desert island bands is ''hilarious''. |
7 | ** Also, the fact that once the Ain't Rights realize they're in a Nazi bar, they start their set off with [[RefugeInAudacity 'Nazi Punks Fuck Off']] by the Music/DeadKennedys. |
8 | * HarsherInHindsight: |
9 | ** A summer thriller about violent, murderous Neo-Nazis murdering teenagers became much harder to watch the following year, when ''actual'' Neo-Nazis descended on Charlottesville, Virginia, sparking violent clashes with police and protesters that left at least one young woman dead. |
10 | ** The film opens with the band having gotten in a car accident, which is incredibly uncomfortable given how Creator/AntonYelchin would die in ''a similar car accident'' a year later. |
11 | * JerkassWoobie: If you listen closely, you can hear Amber give her explanation for why she hangs around neo-Nazis. She heavily implies[[labelnote:note]]And in the script, confirms it[[/labelnote]] that she was raped by men of color at one point. She's also the most violent and ready to kill out of the good guys. |
12 | * {{Narm}}: If Creator/PatrickStewart's performance isn't [[NightmareFuel frightening]] to you, hearing [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Captain Picard]] spout racial slurs can be oddly hilarious. |
13 | * NightmareFuel: |
14 | ** Werm dragging Emily around the floor by the handle of the [[spoiler: knife stuck in her head]]. |
15 | ** What happens to [[spoiler: Pat's]] [[{{Fingore}} arm]]. |
16 | ** The deaths of [[spoiler: Tiger and Sam]]: being mauled to death by an angry pit bull. |
17 | ** [[spoiler: Reece's death]] as well: after leaping headlong out of a window he is stabbed repeatedly by the Nazis, who are then instructed by Darcy to let him slowly bleed to death to simulate a realistic death from wild animal injuries. |
18 | ** Amber's killing of [[spoiler: Big Justin,]] if you don't land on the side of finding it [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments awesome.]] |
19 | ** Creator/PatrickStewart's performance as Darcy. Just hearing a voice one would normally associate with grandfatherly wisdom say racial slurs is cringe-inducing. |
20 | * {{Squick}}: The violence and gore in the film is extremely realistic: Big Justin and Daniel's deaths stand out, as does [[spoiler: Pat's mutilated arm]]. |
21 | * {{Tearjerker}}: |
22 | ** The agonised screaming and crying of [[spoiler: Pat]] after his arm is mutilated. |
23 | ** [[spoiler: After Clark is killed, his injured dog seeks him out and [[UndyingLoyalty lies down to die next to him.]]]] |
