* SplatterHorror: Once the Black Hymn is played for the first time, the demon possessed zombies it creates spew a truly ridiculous amount of blood from every possible exit, following in the fine tradition of Creator/PeterJackson's early splatstick offerings. [[UpToEleven Then the power tools come out...]]

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Cult leader Aeon is as bad as [[BadBoss bad bosses]] get. Not only does he have a henchman executed for [[YouHaveFailedMe failing him]], but he has the mooks reenact the execution when he's not satisfied with how it's done the first time. It gets so bad that [[spoiler:his lover murders him and takes his place at the first opportunity and none of the other followers even bat an eye.]]

* BigBadWannabe: Aeon, who leads the cult and seeks to acquire the power of Aeloth the Blind, [[spoiler:and who is usurped and killed very early on by his lover Shanna.]]
