- Hollywood Pudgy: Elizabeth is henpecked by her mother for eating too much and being overweight. She's actually a thin woman wearing several layers of clothing during the opening scene (the actress playing her was a model, of course.)
- Memetic Mutation: "Where's my johnson?"
- Narm Charm:
- Elizabeth's weird facial contortions are hysterical.
- Super-crack. Just... super-crack.
- She Really Can Act: Patty Mullen does yeoman's work in the role, and really nails it.
- So Bad, It's Good: As with many movies of this type, this is the reason people have a great time watching it.
- In-movie music example: When Jeffrey's "beauty contest" party with the hookers degenerates into a supercrack-smoking free-for-all, the ladies turn the stereo on to a very generic pseudo-metal song. Jeffrey yells "Oh no, not the Devil's Music!" while song lyrics such as "Safe sex is for wimps!" and "Play this song backwards!" are heard.
- Special Effect Failure: The substitution splices of the exploding papier-mâche hookers are utterly unconvincing. The John-Carpenter-esque spare limbs monster puppet which kills Zorro the Pimp qualifies too. Not that any of this diminishes audience enjoyment.
