* Przemyslaw Ziemak gets his eyes put out with a nail studded baseball bat and things somehow only get ''worse '' for him from then on as he continually wanders into high risk situations, eventually being reduced to Shu Hawthornes “pet” before he gets brutally murdered with a rock as he futilely tries to save himself. It’s almost a MercyKill at that stage, and the fact his killer wins the Best Kill Award only makes it worse.
* On the topic of Shu Hawthorne, he’s a brutal {{Sadist}} who’s first kill is by strangling someone to death with ''barbed wire '' and later convinces and assists a suicidal person in ending their own life. The worst part about that is that isn’t entirely clear if he did that for pragmatic reasons (multiple murders would paint a target on his back) or if he just wanted to [[ForTheEvulz hurt an easy target]].

* The death of [[spoiler: Shawn Bellamy]] is both [[AssholeVictim richly deserved]] and gruesome enough to warrant a content warning. The spoilered character, after getting shot, falls [[spoiler: face first into a spike trap that sends several wooden stakes into his neck and face]]. It is not pretty, especially because that isn’t actually what kills them.
