* CultClassic: Very popular among some circles for Creator/ChristopherWalken's magnificently weird performance, its surrealism, and some legitimately terrifying moments.
* HamAndCheese: The film is legendary for Creator/ChristopherWalken's hammy performance. He gleefully chews the scenery as Streiber, who starts out as eccentric at best and goes nuttier from there.

* SpecialEffectsFailure: The aliens themselves. They're obviously puppets, but clever directorial tricks and the obvious fairness of the aliens make them extremely creepy.
* TheWoobie: Whitley. As weird as he is, it's hard not to feel sorry for him. He's a friendly, loving father struggling with PTSD from the aliens, and his experiences have left him clearly mentally ill.

* EveryoneIsSatanInHell: In his confession, Alvaro Vega criticised secular pop and rap music as evil and demonic, claiming that "all that music does is glorify SIN, even the seemingly harmless secular music is a dangerous tool of Satan." Though it quite ironic that he still names Music/{{Eminem}} as an influence despite the latter's profane, transgressive music.
