*BrainwashingForTheGreaterGood: The Conscience. Interestingly, not treated as an inherently bad idea.

* CompleteMonster: Vasor



* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: According to the DVD commentary, the brains in jars gave Carole Ann Ford (Susan) real nightmares.
** A Voord got slowly eaten away by acid -- a fate this troper wouldn't wish on anyone.



* SpecialEffectsFailure: Effortlessly tops every dramatic-death-of-a-dummy scene ever, with a scene in which a ''cardboard cutout'' falls to its death.
