* WeCanRuleTogether: We can ''parent'' together, anyway. [[spoiler: Max believes his boys need a mother's influence, and that Lucy can provide it to them. He specifically told David to target her sons so that once they were turned, she couldn't refuse to be turned herself. His genuine and heartfelt ([[AnOfferYouCantRefuse albeit not-really-negotiable]]) offer is to make her his vampire bride so they can lead his vampire "family" as father and mother.]]

* DiscOneFinalBoss: At first the BigBad seems to be David, the vampire pack leader trying to corrupt the main character into joining him, but it's revealed at the end that [[spoiler:he answers to Max, who wants Sam and Michael's entire family turned]].

* TomTheDarkLord: The head vampire who leads them in regular acts of shockingly brutal murder is simply named David. His friends have the similarly normal names of Marko, Paul, and Dwayne, and [[spoiler: their leader is Max]].

* MustBeInvited: Played with. [[spoiler:Vampires ''can'' enter a home uninvited, as seen during the climax, but if you invite them in first, you lose all power over them as long as they are inside your home -- which includes rendering them invulnerable to your attacks or attempts to exploit their weaknesses and expose them as vampires. Max uses this to trick the protagonists into thinking he's human]].

* NearVillainVictory: [[spoiler:Max comes within a hair's breadth of getting Lucy turned into a vampire before Grandpa intervenes.]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** Early on, Max tells the Lost Boys to leave his store, and they immediately do so without a fuss.
** Max confuses the superstition of not seeing the bride before the marriage for being about not seeing the food before the meal. [[spoiler:He plans to make his intended "bride" (Lucy) into ''food.'']]
** [[spoiler:Max very formally requests permission to enter the house. Initially, it seems like an obvious giveaway that he's a vampire, but then he passes all the Frog brothers' vampire detection tests, confusing the issue until it's revealed him being invited in nullified the effects of the tests.]]

* EvilIsOneBigHappyFamily: [[spoiler: Max refers to them as "his boys" at the end in a tone that shows he saw them as his sons and it's heavily implied they saw him as a father figure, and he is saddened by their deaths and the two families together not being brought together.]]
