!!This animation contains examples of the following tropes:
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: The Vermicious Knids of all things. In Literature/CharlieAndTheGreatGlassElevator, they're interstellar predators and the main antagonists. In Film/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory, they're mentioned to be an inhabitant of Loompa Land with Wonka calling them "fierce beasts" that would "gobble [the Oompa Loompas] up". Here, the Vermicious Knids, just called a Knid, is a large bird that does [[MetaphoricallyTrue eat the Oompa Loompas]]. But seemingly only the dead ones in a funeral ceremony before flying off and leaving the rest in peace.
* AdaptationalVillainy: Wonka in the original book and movie was more of an eccentric and mysterious trickster, not causing any permanent harm to any of the children. Here, he genocides and enslaves the Oompa Loompas before removing their identities and turning them the orange-skinned and green-haired Oompa Loompas we know from the 1971 film.
* AmbiguousSituation: Was Loompa Land really as terrible as Wonka makes out at the end? Did the crocodile eat a knid or a woman? Did the Oompa Loompas live in houses or live in treetops? It leans more torwards the former but it could be the latter too.
* BloodierAndGorier: What Wonka does to the Oompa Loompas, even before entering the tunnel, is far, far more violent than Wonka, both in the original book and any adaptations.
* BodyHorror: Wonka massacring and mutilating the Oompa Loompas. Lofti's skin melting off leaving him as a crying skeleton.
* CrapsaccharineWorld: Wonka's factory. He even tells the Oompa Loompas "Welcome to paradise" but how they get there is anything but sweet.
* DarkerAndEdgier: An understatement. Not only is Wonka's treatment of the Oompa Loompas more severe (resembling real-life colonialism) but his psychological destruction of their minds goes far beyond what any Wonka did before.
* DarkestAfrica: While Loompa Land itself doesn't come under this trope, Wonka convinces them that it was.
* DarkReprise: Of the short flute tune that leads into the Oompa Loompa songs in the 1971 film. Here, it seems to be an auditory cue for hypnotism.
* DisneyAcidSequence: The entire animation could count but the "Welcome to paradise" sequence ramps it up to eleven.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Wonka kills and enslaves the Oompa Loompas, getting rid of their personal identities in the process all because... An elder refused to shake his hand? It's possible Wonka would have done this regardless of how he was treated but we'll never know.
* DownerEnding: The Oompa Loompas are killed, mutilated, enslaved, have their identities removed, and their past forgotten or distorted.
* EvilColonialist: Wonka, complete with Khaki clothes, Pith helmet, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick genociding natives]].
* FalseReassurance: Wonka tells the newly enslaved Oompa Loompas "Don't worry, my friend, I take good care of my workers." which is very quickly disproven.
* FictionalCountry: Loompa Land. Possibly. It could also be a name Wonka gave to a real place.
* GrossUpCloseUp: Dismembered hands, bullet wounds, dead Oompa Loompas, Lofti turning into a skeleton...
* HappinessInSlavery: Justified: While 'happiness' is an overstatement, Wonka appears to be using some kind of mind control or hypnosis to break the Oompa Loompas down until nothing is left of their old life, leaving them dead inside but perfectly servile.
* HopeSpot: After his village is destroyed and his wife killed, Lofti finds his child, holding it in his arms with a pained smile. It doesn't last long.
* TheKindnapper: Whether or not Wonka truly believes this about himself, he tries to make the Oompa Loompas believe it.
* LackOfImagination: Wonka seems to think this about the Oompa Loompas, calling their dreams (in particular, Lofti's dream of holding his child in his arms) "Hollow, no flavor, no imagination."
* LossOfIdentity: Every Oompa Loompa that Wonka enslaves seems to go through this process.
* LargeHam: Wonka during the final section as he shouts about how he saved the Oompa Loompas and now owns them.
* MassTransformation: A dozen or two Oompa Loompas seem to be going through the same process Lofti is.
* MeaningfulName: A cruel example. Listening to the father's dialogue at the beginning reveals that "Oompa" means "Drown" and "Loompa" means "Mind". So "Oompa Loompa" means something along the lines of "Drowned Mind" or "Drowning Mind". Fitting for the black void Lofti later finds himself in.
* MindScrew: The montage after Wonka says "Welcome to paradise" is full of this.
* MoodWhiplash: The depiction of Loompa Land is generally positive, with Lofti falling in love and getting married. Even when Wonka arrives, things still seem fine. That is, until they refuse to shake his hand. Things get [[EvilColonialist worse]] from there. [[BodyHorror Far]] [[LossOfIdentity worse]].
* NightmareFetishist: Wonka seems to take a strange sense of joy from destroying the minds of the Oompa Loompas.
* OutOfTheFryingPan: Lofti survived massacres and managed to avoid mutilation. That is, before being taken into slavery and his identity is taken away.
* PrimalFear: Being enslaved, taken away from your home, loss of identity...
* ScareChord: There's a few scattered around the place, usually signalling things are about to get worse.
* StunnedSilence: Seemingly every Oompa Loompa after the flute tune is played.
* SoundtrackDissonance: The music after Wonka says "Welcome to Paradise" is almost heavenly. All while the Oompa Loompas are seemingly stripped away of their identity and their memories are distorted if not outright removed.
* SurrealHorror: The ending montage in particular.
* TreetopTown: Wonka convinces the Oompa Loompas they lived in these in Loompa Land.
* WhereTheHellIsSpringfield: As in a lot of adaptions, particularly the 1971 film, we're never given a clear location for Loompa Land or Wonka's factory.
