->''"Let me just make this perfectly clear: there is no such thing as werewolves. Our killer is a guy, and I'm gonna find him, [[OpenMouthInsertFoot and I'm gonna kill...]] and we're gonna bring him to justice."''

* RedHerring: [[spoiler:The film keeps cutting back to an large, unsavory man who disposes of a corpse and takes drugs, implying that he is the human form of the werewolf that we see murdering people. He's actually just an unrelated psychopath]].

* SpotTheThread: Something doesn't sit right with John upon reflecting his conversation with Paul. [[spoiler:Paul said he isn't married in spite of mentioning a wife in all of his previous scenes. John then realizes that Paul has always been sitting or hunching over whenever he's spoken to him, which conceals his great height]].

Cummings' feature followup to ''Film/ThunderRoad'', ''Snow Hollow'' offers similar themes on parenting and substance abuse and once again features Cummings in a police uniform.

* BreakingTheFourthWall: A motif throughout the film is people looking directly into the camera, most prominently victims of the killer shortly before they're attacked.

* {{Motif}}: Violence against women. The killer targets women. One of the victims has an abusive ex-boyfriend whom she's returning to. [[spoiler:The RedHerring killer has murdered a woman for a completely unrelated reason]]. John notes that violence against women was often blamed on werewolves. He wonders blithely if women have had to cope with misogyny since Medieval times. Julia just looks at him like that should have been obvious.
