* AudienceAlienatingPremise: It's basically Necrophilia: TheMovie.
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Similar to Music/RizOrtolani's work on ''Film/CannibalHolocaust'', the score by Hermann Kopp, Daktari Lorenz, and John Boy Walton is incredibly beautiful out of context, in sharp contrast to the film's ugly subject matter. For a sample, here's the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8cn4iN9x6M main theme]].
* BileFascination: The film has a horrible subject matter... but a lot of people want to see ''how'' horrible it is.
* EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory: Gets this a lot. There's a scene where Rob imagines himself wearing a crown of thorns while assembling a crucifix, which bleeds once the Jesus figurine is placed on it.
* FauxSymbolism: A lot of people have seen the film as featuring symbolisms for... something, even though the filmmakers admitted to doing the film mostly just to mess with with overly-strict censorship of West Germany as a TakeThat.
* MoralEventHorizon: Rob killing the prostitute. While his necrophilia and him killing a cat, while horrific, could be excused as not directly harming anything alive and done in a fit of angst after Betty leaves him, respectively, killing the prostitute marked the point of no return for him.
* NauseaFuel: Among other bits of nastiness, the film features footage of an actual rabbit being skinned, [[ILoveTheDead sex scenes involving corpses]], and culminates in [[spoiler:the main character killing himself while ejaculating.]]
* SignatureScene: It's split between the threesome with Rob, Betty, and the corpse and the rabbit killing.
* SpecialEffectsFailure: The lower half of the cemetery groundkeeper's head that Rob decapitates is a rather obvious mannequin.
* {{Squick}}: The premise of the film alone qualifies as this.
* TooBleakStoppedCaring: This is a movie where the lead characters are necrophiles doing fucked up things. What did you expect?
