* HomelessHero: In ''Double Down'', Aaron Brand does his contract hacking and assassination work while living in his car and eating nothing but canned tuna, all in the middle of the desert. This gets a bit ridiculous when he casually mentions that he makes tens of millions from his work, but donates everything to charity. Surely nobody would mind if he kept a tiny portion of his pay for himself so he didn't have to live in squalor.

** During Thgil's stay on Earth in ''Pass Thru'', he basically lives in a beaten-up trailer home out in the desert.
** After falling out of favor with his alien superiors and essentially going rogue at the end of ''Twisted Pair'', Cale became a vagrant and quasi-vigilante unlike his much more accomplished and famous twin brother Cade, who owns a castle.

Added DiffLines:

* MetaphoricallyTrue: Neil claims in his ''5-Film Retrospective'' that the tiger that appeared in ''Pass Thru'' was real and not [=CGI=] or an animation. While this is ''technically'' true, in so far as it is the ''footage'' of an actual tiger, it's still not a "real" animal that was in the scene with him.

* PunctuatedForEmphasis: Crops up a lot in all of his films, where characters will deliver their lines with very noticeable {{Beat}}s in between each word to emphasize their importance in the moment. The sheer ubiquity of this trope in Neil's films give off the impression that his works are all set in a WorldOfHam. Depending on if they're a major antagonist or just a bit character, this usually involves [[NoIndoorVoice shouting as well]], which when matched against the protagonist, can devolve into HamToHamCombat.
