* VomitIndiscretionShot: There are some zombies who vomit green sludge at quite a distance. Normally, not a problem. In Torture Mode, where EVERYTHING can be a problem, it's one of the grossest and most embarrassing ways to die.

* TwistEnding: During the post ending cutscene, we see a man covered in bandages boarding a train with Josh and Kate. He sits besides Kate and opens a bag to reveal parasites. It is left up to debate whether this is either Viktor or Marchosias. This could also fall under OrIsIt.
