* {{Hypocrite}}: Albert views the vast majority of women as filthy harlots for having any kind of sex life, but is also a paedophile.
* InsaneEqualsViolent: {{Averted}}: While Albert starts the film in a mental asylum after trying to kill his mother, it's made clear that his mental faculties are all in working order, he's simply a violent misogynist who [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney isn't in prison only because he's rich]].
* PaedoHunt: Albert develops an attraction to Annie, who's 11, due to her innocence.

* StrawMisogynist: Albert is convinced that all women are depraved harlots and deserve to die.

[[spoiler:At the end, his lust makes him decide that Annie is a filthy harlot and he tries to kill her.]]
* VillainProtagonist: Albert, a violent misogynist who wants to kill his mother and [[PaedoHunt falls in love with a child]].
