1 | * AlternateCharacterInterpretation: The Consensus in-universe is that Lily is a incarnate demon, but she makes some rather foolish mistakes for an ancient being, and seems to have a lot of childish desires. Is it possible the demon is possessing an actual little girl? Could she just be a powerful psychic playing on people's ReligiousHorror? |
2 | * CompleteMonster: [[spoiler: [[BitchInSheepsClothing Lilith "Lily" Sullivan]] is a [[OurDemonsAreDifferent demon]] in the form of a [[CreepyChild little girl]]. With the ability to force people to hallucinate their worst fear, Lily sadistically murders those around her [[ForTheEvulz for her own amusement]]. Tricking social worker Emily Jenkins into taking her under her custody, ostensibly to escape her AbusiveParents, Lily takes the opportunity to continue her reign of terror. She manipulates a boy named Diego into killing his parents, and murders her psychiatrist, Douglas. She then targets her incarcerated parents, making [[ManOnFire her mother hallucinate that she is being burned alive]] and causing her father to get [[EyeScream stabbed in the eye]]. When a detective catches on to Lily's involvement in the deaths, she tricks him into shooting himself. After Emily makes a failed attempt to kill her, Lily forces her to hallucinate a childhood memory of her mother driving fast in a rainstorm. Upon her defeat, Lily attempts to [[TakingYouWithMe drag Emily with her to her death]].]] |
3 | * JerkassWoobie: [[spoiler: Lilith's parents, when we learn what Lilith really is. Attempting to kill a child the way they did is not OK, but as it turns out, they were driven to it for a ''damn good reason.'']] |
4 | * {{Narm}}: |
5 | --> '''Emily:''' Open the door. |
6 | --> '''Driver:''' ''[points to "Bus not in service" sign]'' |
7 | --> '''Emily:''' Oh, PLEASE open the door! OPEN THE DOOR, SHE'S COOOOMMMMINGG!!! |
8 | --> '''Driver:''' There's NOBODY out there! |
9 | * NightmareFuel: The scene where Lily's parents attempt to burn her to death in the oven. [[spoiler: That is, before we know her true nature.]] Even worse when it's later thrown back on it's head when [[spoiler: Lillith's mother is forced to imagine herself burning in that same oven all day, every single day.]] |
10 | * NightmareRetardant: [[spoiler:It's hard to take Lilith seriously when her demands are so childish (ice-cream everyday, amongst other things).]] |
11 | * {{Squick}}: The hornet [[spoiler:crawling out from under Doug's eye.]] |
12 | * TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: [[spoiler: The way [[NeverTrustATrailer the trailer put forward the movie (that a demon was after Lilith, and her parents planned to sacrifice her in order to save themselves)]] would have actually been a welcome change from the cookie-cutter "evil child" horror film.]] |
