Line 45:
* [[Narm Charm]]: As strong an element of Lake's writing as ever. His occasionally stilted and unnatural dialogue(possibly deliberate, [[Leaning on the Fourth Wall|in this case]]), often propped up with gratuitous film references right in the fore-text, is still very sincere in its desire to entertain and has won him many new fans.
** Judging by some interviews, Lake is a native Finnish speaker (as is the company) with a really heavy accent so English may not be his first language resulting in some translation issues.
** Barry wrapped in Christmas lights. He looks utterly ridiculous (something Alan himself lampshades), but because it's also an effective defense against the Dark Presence, it comes across as rather badass.
&& The live action scenes in ''American Nightmare'', especially Mr. Scratch's messages to Alan. It's got the usual dorkiness of low-budget video game live action, but he's just so over the top it's hard not enjoy it.
* [[Nausea Fuel]]: In one of Mr. Scratch's recordings in ''American Nightmare'', he slashes the throat of one of Alan's female fans while gently massaging her head. The gurgling noise she makes as she dies is ''very'' disturbing.
* [[Nightmare Retardant]]: Having a deranged hybrid of [[Kingdom Hearts|the Heartless]] and [[Resident Evil|the Ganados]] flail at you wildly with a rusty sickle is unnerving right up until he kindly informs you, "Omega-3 fatty acids are GOOD for your health!".
