* PoliceAreUseless: Invoked and played straight, the police department is at risk of being dissolved and replaced with private security. Throughout the film, they fail to stop the killer, and even release [[spoiler:Ollie]] without much explanation why or warning, causing Makani to flee in panic. Ollie's brother the deputy even loses a taser through the evening while questioning students. That said, in the climax of the film we see several private security guards hired to protect the corn maze dead, while no police are shown harmed.

* RedHerring: There's a couple of scenes that make two characters seem like the killer. [[spoiler:Ollie's brother while interrogating Makani seems menacing and intense, before breaking out in a goofy moment to write down a cool line. The lone Uber driver is incredibly creepy, fishing for Makani to reveal her secrets while badmouthing prior victims.]]
