* BewareTheNiceOnes: To a point; [=McGregor=] is relatively ineffective in a fight even when pushed, but he can still deliver a few surprisingly strong blows if provoked.
* FateWorseThanDeath: The conquistadors were cursed with immortality at the cost that they would always be drawn back to the river if they tried to go out of visual range of it. Later, [[spoiler:Francisco managed to trap them in a pit so that they would be kept away from the river for centuries, their bodies collapsing and being 'replaced' by things ranging from bees to snakes, until the German forces detonated explosives to send the river into the pit]].
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Frank makes reference to having "run out of things to draw" before it's revealed that [[spoiler:he was the cartographer for the conquistador's expedition through the Amazon and has spent centuries drawing maps of the region]].


Added DiffLines:

* WhoWantsToLiveForever: Obviously the cursed conquistadors aren't happy about their situation, but [[spoiler:Francisco is shown having lived for so long that he's had to bury every friend he's made since]].
** At the conclusion, [[spoiler:Francisco is 'freed' of his immortality and enjoys the chance to live a normal life away from the Amazon even knowing that he will now die of old age]].
