"Come to Daddy!"
- The entire concept of parents murdering their children for no reason and not caring.
- The sight of Riley getting strangled by her mom isn't pretty, and it's made even worse by her mom's Dissonant Serenity.
- Kendall's sister attempting to kill her own newborn child, while darkly hilarious due to "It Must Have Been Love" playing over it, is still pretty horrifying.
- Kendall leaves the hospital and passes a group of fathers glaring into a room that has their sleeping newborns. One father appears to be vibrating with rage.
- As the page image shows, Nicolas Cage can be terrifying as Brent.
- His Large Ham approach really pays off here - yes, it's Nick Cage going crazy as we know and love it and it leads to some funny lines... but it's him going crazy on his own children. Whenever the movie has him go into attack mode, he just goes so completely ballistic and nearly feral that it's truly horrifying.
- When Brent wakes up in his office after being affected by the signal, he picks up a picture of his children that had fallen over. His immediate reaction upon seeing it is to scream in absolute rage. Again, this is only a picture.
- No one else affected by the signal, before or after, has such an extreme reaction. It makes a bit more sense when we later find out just how much he resents his life as a parent, but holy shit.
- We don't even hear the scream itself, we just get a very loud burst of static.
- As pointed out in Fridge Horror, in a flashback, Brent freaks out at his wife over something as minor as an argument between them to the point that he angrily destroys parts of his man-cave. This along with other signs of stress Brent has throughout the movie before the signal affects him implies Brent was already gonna snap even without the signal.
- The very first shot of the film is a mother leaving her young baby in the back of a van that she parked on railroad tracks as a train whistles off in the distance.
