* [[Card-Carrying Villain]]: Wharton. When Coffey calls him "a bad man" he responds: "That's right, [[Politically-Incorrect Villain|nigger]]. Bad as you'd want."
** But you also have to remember that this was the South in the '30s, where the N-word was thrown about like it was nothing. However, none of the good guys say it without filtering it through another voice or shaming someone else.
* [[Cruel and Unusual Death]]: Delacroix's botched execution.
