* BullyHunter: Once Kevin discovers the power of the glasses, he takes it upon himself to humiliate the bullies who picked on him. It goes a bit farther than he would have liked.
* {{Clingy MacGuffin}}: As Kevin uses more and more of the glasses' power, they gradually become a part of his body.
* DisproportionateRetribution: {{Lampshaded}}; Kevin is scolded for what he does to Bertram. "Nobody deserves that."
* DraggedOffToHell: Kevin tells Bertram to "Go to Hell." The ground promptly opens up and swallows him.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Bertram's BerserkButton is when his mother is insulted.
* FantasticDrug: Intense highs, crippling addiction and withdrawal--pretty straightforward metaphor.

His teacher tells a campfire story about how the mountain is supposedly the eye of God, and once a year, the tip of its shadow falls exactly on another sacred spot in the valley below. It's just a story, as the teacher later admits, but when Kevin climbs the mountain, guess what he sees? [[FridgeBrilliance Kevin was wearing the glasses, so his believing in the story made it come true.]]
