!!The film contains the following
* ArgentinaIsNaziLand: Or Peru in this case. Gunther Beckdorff is a fugitive Nazi wanted for war crimes. He was meant to be extradited for the Nuremberg Trials and his shipload of treasure confiscated by the Peruvian government, so he did a deal with the Provincial Minster, promising a cut of the wealth on the ''Brittany''.
* BananaRepublic: Cabo
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: Gunther bites down on a cyanide tooth rather than be extradited to Germany where he would be hung for war crimes.
* ComeAlone: A good guy version, and surprisingly Gunther does come alone, perhaps because he's reluctant to have anyone else hear the
* TheCoronerDothProtestTooMuch:
** Despite the huge waterspout from an underwater explosion, the death of the bathysphere operator is ruled an accident by Captain Terredo, to Clarkson's fury. When another man gets killed by divers for swimming in the area, Clarkson sarcastically suggests he got a cramp and drowned and Terredo calmly goes with that line, even though the dead man was the father of one of his policemen.
** Averted when Terredo reports Gunther's suicide to the Provincial Minister, who just orders the captain to bury him in an unmarked grave.
* CoverIdentityAnomaly: Clarkson says his ship is charting the Humboldt Current, not looking for a sunken treasure. But surely Humboldt had already charted the current, says Giff? When Clarkson claims that Humboldt hadn't completed the job, Giff points out that the current was named ''in honor'' of Humboldt, which a marine geographer should know.
* DidNotThinkThisThrough: Marie claims that Giff knows the location of the ''Brittany'', planning to warn him so he can flee before Gunther's men come looking for him, but she can't find Giff because he's busy rescuing Clarkson. This leaves Giff trapped in Cabo Blanco with his boat guarded and a curfew preventing him leaving by vehicle.
* DirtyCop: Captain Terredo, who acts as Gunther's minion and takes
* DramaticThunder and rain for the final scene.
* TheDulcineaEffect: Giff goes to a lot of trouble to help the ex-girlfriend of some guy he once knew who ran off after clearing out his till (though Giff realises the latter was NothingPersonal, as everyone needs ready cash when they go on the run). This is despite Giff being the only one who's not interested in finding the treasure.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Captain Terredo is disgusted
*
* GoldFever: Giff is told the ''Brittany'' was carrying 22 million dollars in gold, specifically to
-->'''Gunther:''' She told you there was ''gold'' on the ship? ''(laughs)'' Is that what you told him?
-->'''Marie:''' Twenty-two million dollars worth. Gold is a magic word. [[AvertedTrope But it didn't work.]]
-->'''Gunther:''' Ah, Giff... People slip and chop and sell their children when gold is mentioned but you don't even budge.

* HoneyTrap: Terrendo gets local prostitute Rosa to sleep with Clarkson and spy on him.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Horst dies by having a spiked wall ornament fall on him.
* InterruptedIntimacy:
** Captain Terredo is
** Clarkson investigates a hut on the beach only to find the frogmen who blew up the bathysphere. Both men are naked in bed with a couple of equally naked prostitutes, and [[FullFrontalAssault don't bother getting dressed]] when they grab guns to go after the British spy.
* LegendFadesToMyth: Even though the treasure is retrieved and returned to those it was stolen from, the legend of more treasure being out there brings fortune hunters who turn Cabo Blanco from a fishing village to a prime tourist spot.
* MsFanservice: Marie is a gorgeous young Frenchwoman who gives the audience with a ToplessnessFromTheBack scene and [[LegFocus shots of her long, lovely legs]].
* NaziGold: Only it's not gold.
* NotInFrontOfTheParrot: Jacques taught Lefty, the parrot in Giff's bar, the coordinates of the ''Brittany'' when it was sunk.
* OldFlame: Hera, whom Giff dumped for being TheAlcoholic, now lives with Gunther, who has grown equally tired of her drinking. Giff still has some feelings for Hera and intervenes when Horst is strangling her.

* YouKillItYouBoughtIt: Giff ends up living in Gunther's house on the hill, having become wealthy from
