* BlackComedy: Quite a few moments of this, though the comedy is very dry. As for its blackness, one of the jokes here is that when Jacob kills a man to rob him the siblings want to verify that he is dead. So they need a mirror to put it to his mouth. However they are dwelling a tent [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext where a homeless person previously lived]] so they do not have any mirror. Except for the back mirror of a jalopy standing nearby. Jacob first tries to break the mirror off the car and when he fails he and Marie drag a fairly heavy man to the boneshaker and rise him so that his mouth is against jalopy's mirror. Then they proclaim him dead.
