Clown Kill contains examples of:

- Bound and Gagged: Jenny ends up tied to a chair with a gag in her mouth at one point, courtesy of Charlie Boy.
- Bring My Brown Pants: When George scares Colin, Colin pees his pants, as shown by a shot of one of his shoes with urine coming out of the pant leg.
- Chairman of the Brawl: When Jenny manages to untie herself from the chair Charlie Boy placed her in, she lifts it up and hits him with it.
