YMMV / Freaks of Nature

Go To

  • Angst? What Angst?: For someone who loses several people he personally knew like his piano teacher and his girlfriend over the course of the movie, Dag acts remarkably well-adjusted. Hell, he doesn't even hold that much of a grudge with Lorelei's killer and ends up settling with her instead. Or for that matter, the human townsfolk isn't particularly perturbed by their loved ones being butchered during the attack.
  • Crosses the Line Twice: A man getting devoured alive and torn to pieces by zombies onscreen? Gross and disturbing. Him narrating what they are doing with him and complaining all the time? Bloody Hilarious.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: Milan is a douchy vampire who also happens to be a creep towards Petra by turning her into a vampire as a form of taking her virginity and then blowing her off for Lorelei. In 2017 there were ongoing accusations of sexual misconduct against Ed Westwick.
  • Inferred Holocaust: Several Dillford citizens were killed during the creatures' onslaught and somehow an alien invasion doesn't become a international concern.
  • One-Scene Wonder:
    • The vampire hunter coach that dispatches vampires in rapid succession as if he was Blade... Right before he gets killed by zombies.
    • The alien's combined form that appears at the very end of the movie, since they are voiced by Werner Herzog.
