7 | |
8 | * BlackDudeDiesFirst: Played with. Gannon's first girlfriend, Rachel, died a year prior before the events of the movie. Gannon and his new girlfriend, Miranda are also not among the first to be killed either. [[spoiler: Gannon is killed a bit before the climax and Miranda ends being the {{Final Girl}} who ends up getting raped by the villain Petr.]] |
9 | * ColorWash: The scenes outside blow out the color, giving an orange wash. |
10 | * CreepyCave: The setting of the film is a massive, terrifying cave. |
11 | * DisposableWoman: [[spoiler: Unfortunately a fate that befalls all three women in the film. Rachel was killed a year before the film starts and while Bailey and Miranda end up making it to the end, Bailey is brutally killed while Miranda is raped.]] |
12 | * EpilepticFlashingLights: Basically the only source of light is the characters' flashlights. And they flicker to the point of inducing seizures. |
13 | * FinalGirl: [[spoiler: The two women, Bailey and Miranda, both make it to the end up until Bailey is killed, leaving Miranda the sole survivor who gets raped.]] |
14 | * GratuitousRape: [[spoiler:The movie ''ends'' on a rape scene just to shock the viewer]]. |
15 | * IAteWhat: The two {{Final Girl}}s eat some meat... and find out it's [[ImAHumanitarian man one]]. [[VomitIndiscretionShot Puking ensues]]. |
16 | * MenAreTheExpendableGender: [[spoiler:The killer murders all men from the group first before deciding to target women.]] |
17 | * NoEnding: One of the most egregious and notorious cases in recent memory. At the end of the film, [[spoiler:the caveman (Petr) brutally kills one of the remaining survivors and [[GratuitousRape rapes the other]], and the film just ends right there. It may also count as a DownerEnding]]. |
18 | * StrangerBehindTheMask: In the final moments it's revealed the monster was a caveman whose origins are shown at roughly the same time. |
19 | * TooDumbToLive: All of the protagonists, since they have insufficient equipment. |
20 | * TwoGirlsToATeam: There are only two women on the exhibition team. There was a third woman, but she died in a previous cave accident prior to when the film starts. |
