- Adaptation Displacement
- Complete Monster: Christian Szell of course.
- Fridge Logic: Why does Szell go to a New York diamond market in person to do business when he could send a lackey or do business by phone?
- Is it safe? Is it safe? Szell is too paranoid to do this. As Babe mentions in the film's (and I think the book's) ending, all of the trouble came because the Nazi was afraid that he would be robbed by anyone he worked with. The book has a few excerpts of his thought process, obsessing over his safety.
- CALL THE POLICE!!
- What are the police going to do when the people after Babe are working for a rather shadowy branch of the government?
- High Octane Nightmare Fuel: The torture sequence. It takes every fear people have of going to the dentist and amps it up to Eleven on the nightmare dial.
- During screening, the director noticed a LOT of people leave during the drill scene... and tentatively come back.
- Ho Yay: Henry and Janeway. (It's more explicit in the novel.)
- Memetic Mutation: Is it safe?
