- Alternative Character Interpretation: The movie leaves it vague as to whether Stephanie is a psychopath with I Just Want to Be Loved motives who just happens to have bad luck with men, or if she's preying on single men and getting engaged to them with the intention of murdering them, stalking them so she can catch them doing something that, in her mind, justifies their death (Darlene's story sort of tilts it more toward the latter, with the implication that Stephanie steals men already in relationships knowing that they might still have feelings for their exes).
- Poor Man's Substitute: Knowing that the movie was basically sold as The Mockbuster of Black Widow (1987) makes it very obvious that Kelly Preston and Sammi Davis are this for that film's stars Debra Winger and Theresa Russell.
- Retroactive Recognition: A young Allison Mack plays Stephanie in the flashbacks to her childhood, which, with Mack's sordid future involvement with the NXIVM cult, might also cross over into Harsher in Hindsight territory.
