- Cult Classic: The film isn't too well known, but its quirky atmosphere and the team-up of horror Legends Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, and Boris Karloff has caused this film to be put on a high pedestal by its fans who try to keep its memory alive.
- Jerkass Woobie: Bedlo has Chronic Backstabbing Disorder and is a pathetic Dirty Coward. Nonetheless, he does sound pitiful talking about his desire for respect, Awful Wedded Life, and (in the book and script) certainty that the handsome Rexford cannot be his biological son. He also ends up being Rewarded as a Traitor Deserves and threatened with torture after betraying the heroes, and ends the movie trapped in the body of a bird despite pulling a Hazy-Feel Turn.
- Signature Scene: A fair number of genre fans who've never seen the movie and don't plan to have still heard of the climactic Wizard Duel between Vincent Price and Boris Karloff.
