=== This film provides examples of: ===
* [[Bad Santa]]: "Santa Claus" is the nickname of the drug dealer who supplies Lila and Olaf with the heroin they use to keep their white slaves under control. He wears red and uses a toy store as a front for his operations.
* [[Being Tortured Makes You Evil]]: Or possibly crazy. At least one of the female sex slaves kept in the attic can do little more than giggle at everything that goes on around her; she just smiles at a new recruit as the poor girl begs for help before being raped.
* [[Depraved Dwarf]]: Olaf, of course.
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Olaf. His laugh fluctuates between a snicker and a [[Giggling Villain|giggle]], but it's always undeniably evil.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: Lila Lash is evil. Very evil. She's so evil she has a large, brown scar across her left cheek, almost to the point of having a half-[[Glasgow Grin]]. Has the fact that she's evil been mentioned?
* [[Lady Drunk]]: Lila Lash and her friend spend much of the movie getting plastered.
* [[Little People Are Surreal]]: Olaf can make ''anything'' seem bizarre and disturbing with nothing more than a sweaty grin.
* [[Madwoman in The Attic|Mad Women In The Attic]]: Three of them, kept completely naked and hooked on heroin.
* [[One -Hour Work Week]]: Subverted with Peter, who begins as a struggling writer, but then spends much of the movie searching for a job.
* [[Police Are Useless]]: To American audiences, this was highly averted. When Peter goes to the police, they not only believe his story, they respond ''immediately''.
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: On almost every level.
