%%* AntiHero: Nick.

%%* * AntiHero: Nick.Nick starts out as a corrupt cop who is mainly in it for the money, but his guilt over this and love for his family makes him a sympathetic character regardless.



%%* DaChief: A rather snarky female one at that.

to:

%%* * DaChief: A Proctor is this trope, and a rather snarky female one at that.that. She's fairly reasonable, but she has limited tolerance for Roy's shenanigans and is initially suspicious about the Staff of Jericho, presenting some obstacles for the heroes.

%%* DeadToBeginWith: Nick.

to:

%%* * DeadAllAlong: The BigBad
%%*
BigBad interacts with living beings and lacks the "soul stink" that most Dead-os have, but he is in fact dead at the start of the movie and was just hiding it with a magical talisman.
*
DeadToBeginWith: Nick.Nick is shot by his corrupt partner at the start of the movie and is dead for the whole movie.



%%* OneWingedAngel: The true form of the renegade spirits.

to:

%%* * OneWingedAngel: The true form of the renegade spirits.spirits is always a horrifically distorted monster that they just hide to appear alive. This ranges from extra hands to dislocated jaws to horrifically full bellies.

%%* {{Acrofatic}}: The dead-o Pulaski, a.k.a. "Fat Elvis".



* ThreatBackfire: Knowing that most Dead-os don't want to lose their human forms by being exposed to cumin, Nick attempts to interrogate Pulaski by taking a handful of the stuff and holding it within reach of him, with the implicit threat of throwing it at the Dead-o if he doesn't answer questions. Unfortunately, Pulaski is such a FullyEmbracedFiend that he declares "You know what? I'm sick of hiding!", then grabs Nick's hand and practically buries his face in the cumin.



* WeaksauceWeakness: Cumin doesn't hurt dead-os, but it cause them to "pop" and turn into horrible monsters (a change they can't reverse).

* {{Acrofatic}}: Pulaski, the "Fat Elvis" dead-o, [[InASingleBound bounds]] several stories around the city and runs up walls attempting to escape the two protagonists.



* FatBastard: The dead-o Pulaski, a.k.a. "Fat Elvis". Applies to a few others, as well.

* FatBastard: The dead-o Pulaski, a.k.a. "Fat Elvis".Elvis" already lives upto his name, but when cornered by the protagonists reveals his true self and bulks up ''considerably''. Applies to a few others, as well.


Added DiffLines:

* GlamourFailure: Dead-o's can disguise themselves as humans and are only given away by the negative effect their presence has on the environment. Oddly enough, cumin can force a dead-o to assume their true appearance against their will, which is regularly exploited by both sides.

* TransformationExhilaration: When Roy and Nick try to get answers out of Pulaski (AKA Fat Elvis) with a handful of cumin, the Dead-o decides he's "sick of hiding," and snorts the lot out of Nick's hand. As he begins to change, Pulaski gleefully chuckles "[[Music/ElvisPresley thankyou, thankyouverymuch]]," then shudders violently like he's just taken a hit of cocaine as he expands into a morbidly-obese giant. He even remarks "that's better" as the transformation concludes, before flinging himself into battle with a triumphant war cry.

* HumanSacrifice: The [[ArtifactOfDoom Staff of Jericho]] needs this to be activated, which is lampshaded by the BigBad. [[spoiler:However, he also makes clear that pretty much any human would do and that choosing Julia to fill this role is a completely personal choice. Also somewhat subverted in that him inflicting a stomach wound to Julia is enough for the Staff to activate as her blood is sucked into it.]]
