Line 13:
* [[Body Horror]]: In the movie, Molasar's victims are either {{spoiler|disintegrated entirely}} or {{spoiler|left burned and charred}} after encountering him.
* [[Canon Foreigner]]: Father Fonescu in the movie.
* [[Death Byby Adaptation]]: {{spoiler|Glaeken}}, at least in the theatrical cut with the truncated [[Downer Ending]].
** Simultaneously averted in that the scene where Alexandru (who otherwise just sort of [[What Happened to Thethe Mouse?|disappears from the story]]) is murdered by his own sons was cut.
* [[Dracula]]: Subverted, as Molasar claims he'd merely ''worked'' for the historical Dracula. {{spoiler|And he's lying about that.}}
* [[Enemy of My Enemy]]: Molasar convinces Prof. Cuza they [[Those Wacky Nazis|have a common enemy]]. That, or Cuza just assumes it and Molasar plays along to gain his trust. {{spoiler|In either case he's lying outright and is [[Complete Monster|worse than the Nazis]].}}
Line 33:
* [[Sdrawkcab Name]]: {{spoiler|In the novel, Molasar's surname is actually "Rasalom" backwards. Again, no word on whether this also applies to his given first name, Radu, in which case his ''really'' real name would be "Udar Rasalom."}}
* [[Shout-Out]]: The books found inside the keep's walls are [[Tome of Eldritch Lore|standard occult reference-works]] of the [[Cthulhu Mythos]].
* [[Spared Byby the Adaptation]]: {{spoiler|It's heavily implied Cuza dies in the novel, but the movie lets him survive, albeit returned to his aged, decrepit state. Similarly, in the novel Glaeken kills the two Romanian border guards but in the movie he just intimidates them into getting out of his way.}}
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: [[Red Shirt|Lutz]]. {{spoiler|After being expressly forbidden by Captain Woermann from futzing with the crosses in the keep, he and another soldier attempt to pry one loose from the wall the ''minute'' they're alone, with predictable results.}}
* [[Sealed Evil in Aa Can]]: Radu Molasar ( {{spoiler|Rasalom}}).
* [[Those Wacky Nazis]]: Kaempffer and his SS bully boys.
* [[You!]]: Done by Molasar in reaction to {{spoiler|Glaeken's return}}.
