1 | * HarsherInHindsight: A movie where a woman who has nightmares of being raped every night seems a lot darker after Creator/RomanPolanski himself was convicted of raping a 13-year-old girl. The fact that Carol's mental illness is implied to stem from rape when she was a young girl only makes matters worse. |
2 | * SignatureScene: The arms growing out of the walls and groping at Carol near the end. It's been so widely referenced that the scene has reached ItWasHisSled territory by this point. |
3 | * {{Squick}}: The shots of the very realistic-looking decaying rabbit carcass. |
4 | * TheWoobie: Carol was barely hanging on by a thread at the start of the film, and she completely loses her mind over the course of the movie due to [[spoiler: trauma from her childhood rape.]] |
