1 | * LoveToHate: Det. Loren Visser is such a memorable villain. |
2 | * NightmareFuel: Imagine yourself [[spoiler:regaining consciousness after being shot, only to find yourself being buried alive (by someone who you thought was dead, no less)]]. |
3 | ** In several other ways, too, well described by Creator/RogerEbert: |
4 | -->It keys into three common nightmares: (1) You clean and clean but there's still blood all over the place; (2) You know you have committed a murder, but you are not sure quite how or why; (3) You know you have forgotten a small detail that will eventually get you into a lot of trouble. |
5 | ** The scene in which Visser has to pull the knife from his hand also counts, if only because it seems to take forever to remove it. |
6 | ** Abby's nightmare, particularly [[spoiler:[[JumpScare the very sudden shot of Marty puking a bucket of blood out of nowhere.]]]] |
7 | * OneSceneWonder: More like one-''shot'' wonder, but the Stetson-adorned, smiling driver who flashes his headlights at Ray and aims a finger gun at him. Also doubles as a BigLippedAlligatorMoment. |
8 | * ParanoiaFuel: In addition to NightmareFuel, the ending certainly has this going for it, [[spoiler:with Abby killing Visser thinking that he's Marty, only to hear him laughing about his demise from inside the bathroom where he was shot.]] Being stalked and threatened with murder by a vengeful ex-lover is one thing, it's a whole different kind of terrifying to be stalked and threatened with murder by a ''complete stranger''. |
