* UnexplainedAccent: Sam Neill, David Warner, and Wilhelm von Homburg all speak in their native accents (New Zealand, England, and Germany, respectively) despite the movie being set in the United States and there are no references to any of them being expats. In von Homburg's case it's especially strange since he's supposed to be a blue-collar Hobb's End local.

* AngryGuardDog: Cane sics several of them on Simon and his cohorts as they try to confront him at the church. They're surprisingly effective considering the men are angry and toting rifles [[spoiler: or maybe not, considering Cane literally wrote into reality what would happen]].

The Old Ones operate on ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve rules, so making a sufficiently large number of these people insane enough to accept their existence is basically their form of colonisation. Cane and his writings are real anyway...simply their main vehicle for this.

Added DiffLines:
* NightmareSequence: Played with. The characters have frequent surreal and horrifying visions that they then wake up from, but given that it's in the context of reality and fiction merging and the waking world (insofar as the viewer can distinguish such a thing) getting weirder and weirder, describing them as simply 'bad dreams' seems a dangerous oversimplification.
