1* AngstWhatAngst: Kathy quickly shakes-off her AttemptedRape, because it might [[SkewedPriorities ruin the party]].
2* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Carolyn, the woman that was the recipient of the wiener joke, has a [[{{Fanservice}} random topless scene]] during the pool party, while offering food to Billy that comes out of nowhere and doesn't have anything to do with anything else in the movie.
3* EnsembleDarkhorse:
4** The turtle-like aliens are among the rare bright spots in the film.
5** Creator/EddieDeezen is always a pleasure to watch.
6* FetishRetardant: The sex scenes.
7-->'''Servo:''' "Urgh! Nature videos of big spiders going at it are more appealing."
8* HollywoodPudgy: You can tell it's TheSeventies when Franny, a girl who is maybe 5 pounds overweight, complains she's fat and homely, when she's nothing of the sort.
9* MemeticMutation: Nerf Blaster of Ultimate Destruction.
10* RetroactiveRecognition: This was the first acting role Creator/EddieDeezen ever took.
11* SpecialEffectsFailure: Stop-motion animation (here used for the aliens) ''rarely'' ages well. The aliens look good by themselves, but when actually integrated with the live-action footage, they don't quite blend in and look as if they were simply plastered over the shot. Even then, the stop-motion is ''still'' the best SFX, if not part in general, of the entire movie! Something even critics agree on.
12* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Dr. Mellon is one of, if not ''the'' only truly likable character in the film and is played by the great Creator/RoddyMcDowall to boot, so of course he dies after a few scenes,
13* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: Creator/RoddyMcDowall takes his role as Dr. Mellon, turning in a quiet, but kindly performance.
