1	* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Right before [[spoiler: he's killed]], Eddie is revealed to be wearing a toupee. This was never foreshadowed at any point and aside from vanity, no reason is given for him to wear one.
2	* BileFascination: Come for that one scene of Creator/NicolasCage screaming "FUCK!", stay for many other scenes of Cage doing/saying similar crazy things!
3	* EndingFatigue: [[spoiler: The best character dies]], and there’s still thirty minutes left.
4	* EnsembleDarkhorse: Eddie. He's pretty much the only character worth mentioning thanks to Nicolas Cage. The film can safely be stopped after [[spoiler:his head goes into a deep-fryer]] with nothing of any significance missed on the viewer's part.
5	* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments:
6	** Eddie's ranting after surviving a hit:
7	---> "What am I, a fucking retard, man? Am I A FUCKING RETARD, HUH? I know what this is! Lou's trying to snuff me out because of his GREASY LITTLE NEPHEW being around! WELL, VIVE LA FUCKING FRANCE, MAN! Huh-huh!"
8	** One of the few that doesn't come directly from Eddie himself, but rather the licorice-eating, Huey Lewis-resembling hitman he kills outside the titty bar:
9	--->'''Eddie:''' "Who sent ya, huh?! Who sent ya?!"
10	--->'''Hitman:''' "[[Creator/SamPeckinpah SAM... FUCKIN'... PECKINPAAAH!!]]"
11	* HamAndCheese: Nicolas Cage must have noticed how stupid the movie is the moment he read his lines. Otherwise, he wouldn't overact every scene he's in to oblivion.
12	* {{Narm}}: If a scene is supposed to be taken seriously and it involves Eddie, it's just gonna be a laughfest thanks to Nicolas Cage.
13	--> '''Eddie:''' ''(barges in with blood on his shirt)'' Rraahh! Someone's try'na kill me, man!\
14	'''Diane:''' Who'd try to kill you, Eddie?\
15	'''Eddie:''' ''(struggling to get a clean shirt off a coathanger)'' The fucking hangers!
16	* SoBadItsGood: The film would be just a trashy noir/comedy film that would be terrible if not for Nicolas Cage's [[LargeHam hilarious overacting]]. His delicious HamAndCheese performance is considered to be among his best performances not to be taken seriously. See [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZhciDUvnlY here]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1fEnhawu_k here]] to see just how bad the acting is.
17	* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: Creator/MichaelBiehn. Not his ''best'' work, mind you, but he's clearly trying.
18	* WatchItForTheMeme: This movie might as well be named "That Movie Where Nicolas Cage Screams a Drawn-Out 'FUCK!'". Either that or more generally "Nic Cage: [[HamAndCheese Unleashed]]"; literally nothing else is worth a look in this film.
