When Bryan tries to save Jamal, the latter lampshades on this after Bryan says Jamal never gave up on him only for Jamal to replied he did, following by [[WouldRatherSuffer pushing him away as though he's saying he would rather die then getting saved by a relapsing lying junkie]] and the fact Jamal's a lost cause due to his grave wounds, but still trusted him to order him to get Murielle safe from harm.]]
11	* DecoyProtagonist: The protagonist of the film at first seems to be Devon, as he's the one who comes up with the idea to make the documentary, and the first twenty minutes or so focus on him. The true protagonist is actually Bryan, while Devon himself is actually [[spoiler: the BigBad]].
12	* DemonicPossession: According to Shiori, she has been possessed by a demon ever since she was ''born''.

16	* FauxAffablyEvil: Shayla and [[spoiler: Devon after TheReveal.]]
17	* HumanoidAbomination: [[spoiler: Devon.]]
18	* {{Jerkass}}: Devon is short-tempered, manipulative, selfish, and inconsiderate of others, even going as far as to call Bryan, a recovering drug-addict, a "parasite", and states "once a junkie, always a junkie", [[spoiler:[[JerkassHasAPoint which he turned out to be right following Bryan's lying about his recovery]]]]. And this is ''before'' he is revealed to be [[spoiler: Satan]].
19	* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: For all his unsavory traits as described in the just above bullet, Devon did seemed to care for his crew-mates when the monsters attack, [[spoiler:until TheReveal however]].
20	* ALizardNamedLiz: [[spoiler: The '''Devil''' calling himself '''Devon'''. Go figure.]] Doubles as an example of LouisCypher.
21	* LouisCypher: [[spoiler: Devon, aka the Devil.]] Doubles as an example of ALizardNamedLiz.
22	* ManipulativeBastard: [[spoiler: Devon is revealed to have manipulated everyone to be part of his plan to bring about HellOnEarth, especially Bryan and Murielle.]]
23	* MindOverMatter: Both Shiori and [[spoiler: Devon]] demonstrate this power.

25	* OurDemonsAreDifferent: They can possess humans at birth, and cause their bodies to undergo horrific transformations. Their presence causes camera distortion, and are vulnerable to holy water and can be killed by a crucifix.
26	* OurVampiresAreDifferent: For starters, sunlight doesn't kill them, but it is stated that their sense are heightened during the daytime, which bothers them. They drink blood more for the same reason humans enjoy drugs, alcohol, and sex, than they do for food. They are capable of flight and turn others through biting. The bite slowly kills the person that has been bitten, and they later come back as a vampire. They are killed by wooden stakes and become skeletons upon death.
27	* RecoveredAddict: Bryan is a recovering drug-addict who has gone 240 days sober. [[spoiler: Tragically subverted when it's revealed that Bryan has been lying about not taking any drugs.]]
28	* {{Sadist}}: Shayla grins in delight on hearing [[spoiler:Bryan and Jamal having a falling out in the house's bathroom following the reveal of Bryan lying about his drug recovery]].
29	* {{Satan}}: [[spoiler: Devon is revealed to be the Devil himself in human disguise.]]
30	* TheVamp: Shayla is a literal example of this.
31	* SkinWalker: Though it's more like a traditional werewolf than an actual skin-walker.
32	* SlashedThroat: How [[spoiler: Bryan is killed.]]
