* [[Fainting]]: Suzy faints during ballet practice supposedly because of anemia.
* [[Final Girl]]: Suzy.
* [[Gorn]]: During Pat's murder, {{spoiler|the killer stabs so deeply you can actually see her heart being punctured, but that's only the beginning}}. The Magnum release is the only American release with every frame of footage (even the recent DVD releases are missing anywhere from a few frames to a few seconds of footage), and the R-rated cut is only available in a pan-and-scan cut, while the uncut version is available in both pan-and-scan and letterboxed versions.▼
* [[Gory Discretion Shot]]: Surprisingly, when {{spoiler|Sara's}} throat is being slashed, we barely see the knife slicing and then we get a closeup of her eyes. Surprising, considered [[Gorn|what we saw during Pat's murder]].▼

* [[Spanner in the Works]]: {{spoiler|Were it not for one of the teachers bringing many of the students on an unexpected field trip, the death toll from the destruction of the school after Suzy defeats Helena Markos would've been much higher. It's very possible that the teacher found out and took the class on the field trip, trusting that Suzy (who had just returned after learning the truth about witchcraft and the paranormal courtesy of a lecture on the subject from a psychiatrist) would deal with the witchcraft problem before (s)he and the other students returned.}}
