  • Awesome Music: Cosmo Black, by Dynatron, the music that plays over the main crew going to get their revenge, is a perfect synthwave piece.
  • Complete Monster: Freddy Russell, a former member of the Dixie Mafia hiding under the Witness Protection Program, is the son of Ben Russell, and a maker of snuff films. Taking advantage of his protection status, Freddy and his crew take in illegal immigrant prostitutes and film home movies containing footage of them killing them in various sadistic ways, one of which involves brutally beating one up with a baseball bat. Having made dozens of these films, Freddy sells the tapes through the video store he works for. When his father discovers the tapes, he and his friends invade Freddy's headquarters in order to kill him. When Ben and the crew encounter Freddy, Freddy wastes no time trying to kill them, mortally wounding Ben in the process.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Got an extremely limited release in USA and is virtually unheard of in Canada, but in Britain, it got a wide release and was very successful.
  • Nightmare Fuel: The Batting Practice movie and Freddy Russell's dirty dealings in general.
