* [[Evil Chancellor]]: Chancellor Canaris, who cheerfully plans to allow [[The Plague|the Reaper virus]] to ravage the general populace in order to reduce overpopulation.

* [[Fan Service]]: The first action sequence features a random nude woman. With a shotgun. Then about halfway through the film come the strippers, and for some reason all the punks have this strange aversion to being fully clothed in ''Scotland''...

** Well, maybe that's global warming for you. It does take place in 2030-something...

* [[Freeze Frame Bonus]]/[[Shout Out]]: In the underground bunker, just as one of the characters says "What were they keeping in here, the Lost Ark?", the camera shows a momentary flash of a wooden crate with a stencil that says "TOP SECRET -- ARMY INTEL 9906753 -- DO NOT OPEN", last seen in the closing shot of ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark (Film)|Raiders of the Lost Ark]]''

* [[The Lancer]]: Sergeant Norton

* [[Mad Scientist]]: [[Malcolm McDowell]] as Dr. Marcus Kane. But then, with [[Name of Cain|a name like Kane]], what do you expect? Also his son Sol, which is presumably short for [[Solomon Kane]].

* [[Made of Explodium]]: Eden drives a Bentley clean through a bus. Which explodes. And then a severed head ''flies out of the explosion and hits the camera''.

* [[No Guy Wants an Amazon]]: Averted by Sol, who can't seem to let his go.

{{quote| '''Sinclair:''' You like pain?<br />

'''Gimp:''' Yeeeah! }}
