Tropes for the film:
- All for Nothing: Detective Bishop drives to Seed’s house to save Sandy and Emily, where he finds them on live TV being held hostage where Emily tells Bishop that if he wants them to be free, he has to shoot himself. Although, Sandy tells him that he will still kill them regardless and as Bishop tries to have Seed kill him himself, he then kills Sandy and it causes Bishop to go through with it so his daughter will be free. Max doesn’t keep his promise and while he doesn’t kill Emily, he instead throws and imprisons the poor girl to rot in the same room her dad died in.
- Downer Ending: Max kidnaps Detective Bishop’s wife and daughter, then uses that to lure Detective Bishop to his residence where he forces him to commit suicide, and then proceeds to kill his wife and then lock his daughter into the room where her dad’s body is to rot like her other victims (although the sequel reveals she survived but sadly became Seed’s new wife and a killer like him), and can now kill many more victims with nobody left to stop him.
- Foreshadowing: In a scene between Bishop and Emily, she tells him that she had a nightmare where he died. This ends up coming true at the very end when Max kidnaps her and forces him to shoot himself
- I Don't Like the Sound of That Place: The town of Sufferton.
- Nail 'Em: Bishop's wife is shot in the head with a nail gun.
- Number of the Beast: Max Seed was captured after killing this many people.
- One-Word Title: Seed.
- Unfinished, Untested, Used Anyway: The executioner's complains to the warden about the unreliable electric chair.Executioner: Alright, look. We have to cancel this execution, and you know that. Okay, this chair, it cannot do the job. Okay, we have standards here. I have standards here! You remember what happened last time? It was like the goddamn Fourth of July in there!
