Tropes for the film:

  • All Germans Are Nazis: After he and Bill kill a German hitchhiker, Kyle (who is still uncomfortable about murder) tries to alleviate his unease by saying that the victim's father was "probably a Nazi".
  • But for Me, It Was Tuesday: The movie begins with William talking with the mother of one of his victims. When the mother shows him a picture of her son, Bonin nonchalantly says "So many faces, they all just get so... mixed up".
  • Historical Domain Character:
    • William Bonin, serial killer in 1979 to 1980.
    • Det. St. John, officer who investigate the murders.
  • Period Piece: Takes place in 1979-1980.
  • Tagline: "Based on the horrifying true story of William Bonin".
