* BottomlessMagazines: Refreshingly averted, especially rare for the GatlingGood trope. Big John shows up with “Big Bertha” a cut-down, man-portable M134 Minigun with a backpack ammunition supply. Big John has exactly enough ammo for two sweeping bursts (approximately 20 seconds of sustained fire) before he ditches it for a more practical assault rifle.

* GatlingGood: Big John's [[IcallitVera signature weapon]] is a minigun loaded with incendiary or tracer rounds, aside from [[RuleOfCool looking awesome]] it's [[KillItWithFire extra effective]] against vampires.

** While explaining to Seth about the nature of vampires, Bud name-drops several movies from ''[[Literature/{{Twilight}} The Twilight Saga]]''. Seth notices Bud left out ''Breaking Dawn: Part Two'' and surmises he hasn't seen it.

* TheNoseKnows: Vampires can recognize each other by smell. More importantly, this stench lingers on the hunters, so they have to bathe vigorously after kills to make sure they aren't tracked by relatives.

* FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire: Heather might be a vampire, but she only keeps tabs on Bud and feeds on blood bags instead of hunting people.

** Vampires are also much more short-lived than normal: they are considered "elders" when they are around one hundred years old, the BigBad of the movie is around two hundred years old and sits at the top of the food chain, and the seven hundred years old "El Jefe" is so old he is considered legendary and few even believe he actually exists. In most vampire fiction, the BigBad would be considered to be basically still a youngster, and a figure like El Jefe would have some reasonable anzianity but still be barely above the middle of the pyramid.

Added DiffLines:

* StressVomit: Besides peeing himself, Seth vomits during his first experience hunting vampires. And when he sees the carnage at Troy's shop he almost vomits again, but he manages to swallow it.
