Added DiffLines:

* NotAfraidOfYouAnymore: Paired with PreAsskickingOneLiner. As he holds [[spoiler:Darcy]] at gunpoint at the end, [[spoiler:Pat]] reflects on the irony of the situation.
--> "It's funny. You were so scary at night."
* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: Patrick Stewart doesn't make a lot of effort to sound American.

Added DiffLines:

* TheBigGuy: Reece is the tall, athletic drummer of the band who has real fighting skill, able to keep a massive Nazi bouncer in a jiu jitsu hold and choke him out when he becomes a problem. He's also [[spoiler:the second band member to die]].

Added DiffLines:

* DeadpanSnarker: Tiger, since he's the frontman, has a dry sense of humor when dealing with tough crowds. He blandly comments "That was a cover" after playing "Nazi Punks Fuck Off" to an entire bar full of pissed off skinheads who look like they're about to rip his head off. He plays it off well enough that the rest of the band's set actually seems to go fairly well.


Added DiffLines:

* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: The entire crux of Darcy's plan after he's made aware of the situation; he wants to avoid attention from authorities, and he can't have the blood of four out of towners on his hands, so he tries to set it up so that it looks like the band members got mauled by dogs while siphoning gas. This is the main reason he forbids the Red Laces from using guns against the band members.


Added DiffLines:

* SlashedThroat: Dealt out to two separate Nazis; [[spoiler:the bartender gets slashed in the neck with a machete after Amber pins his gun against the wall, and Amber later opens up one of the Red Laces watching over the drug lab with a box cutter while his back is turned]].

Legitimate Businessmens Social Club TRS cleanup, disambiguating when appropriate.


* LegitimateBusinessmensSocialClub: The venue is a front for Darcy and company's [[spoiler: heroin dealing]].

* AttackAttackAttack: Pat recalls that this is how the band won a round of paintball against U.S. Marine veterans. [[spoiler: It inspires him and Amber to formulate a proactive plan, even if based on completely different principle]].

** Early on, while giving an interview, all band members list their Desert Island Bands, all being rock or punk rock. Later on, in the thick of it, [[spoiler: Sam reveals it's in fact Music/SimonAndGarfunkel, while Reece reveals it's Music/{{Prince}}]]. This even extends to Amber, since even if she wasn't part of the interview, listing of [[spoiler: Music/{{Madonna}} alongsode Music/{{Slayer}}]] is funny by itself given her [[{{UsefulNotes/Skinheads}} skinhead]] background.

* EmotionlessGirl: Amber, probably due to being exposed to the horrors of the gang and their actions throughout her life. She also hints at having been victimized by a a group of unspecified minorities, which is what caused her to associate with skinheads in the first place.

** [[spoiler: Pat and Amber are the last survivors of the night and trapped in the green room. With the skinheads' arrival imminent, Amber [[DressingAsTheEnemy shaves Pat's head and gives him her jacket]] while she hides in the sofa. When the skinheads break in, Pat's skinhead impersonation puts the killers off-guard long enough for him to bait them into a trap]].
** The band's decision to open with "Nazi Punks Fuck Off" ''[[TemptingFate while surrounded by neo-nazi skinheads]]'', which they actually manage to get away with since the audience is annyoyed, but also seems [[VillainRespect slightly impressed]] that they had the balls to go through with it.

* FauxAffablyEvil: Darcy has a gentle, almost grandfatherly approach to mentoring the young Skinheads, but has no qualms about leaving them to die as soon as they're no longer useful to him. He also uses his kindly personality to try to convince the band to surrender, fully intent on killing them all once they've done so.
