Comedic Sociopathy | |
| April Fools' Day / int_4a4d6f7c | comment |
Comedic Sociopathy: The whole thing turns out to be a prank on Muffy's part - testing out a 'murder mystery weekend' business plan, while making the house a B&B. That said, considering the other character thought their friends had been killed and legitimately feared for their lives, it comes across and extremely cruel and practically sociopathic, yet oddly the rest of the group isn't furious when they find out it was a prank and seem to forgive Muffy right away even though she doesn't even apologize. | |

Beware the Quiet Ones: Nan is a quiet, bookish young woman who would rather read or talk about theatre than party with the rest of the group and runs away crying when she thinks Muffy set up a prank as a cruel reminder of her abortion. After The Reveal that Muffy planned the whole murder setup, she waits until Muffy is alone to viciously slit her throat with a knife! Except it's a gag knife, and Nan gets the last laugh. "April Fool", indeed. | |

Good Girls Avoid Abortion | |
| April Fools' Day / int_8387bb18 | comment |
Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Averted when it turns out that the supposed Shrinking Violet Nan was pregnant and had an abortion. This comes after someone left a tape of a baby crying in her room. It's implied she got pregnant after a one night stand who dumped her, which serves to make her sympathetic. Muffy set it up simply as a Red Herring, not knowing about the abortion. It's one of the few things she actively apologizes for when she lays out her scheme at the end. | |

Rewatch Bonus | |
| April Fools' Day / int_97926168 | comment |
Rewatch Bonus: The first scene has Muffy propping open the cellar window. Rob and Kit crawling in and discovering the clues are crucial to Muffy's planned climax. Nan says she and Muffy were in drama society together. Foreshadowing that Muffy is a gifted actress. If you look closely, you can see that Muffy's nails are painted red for the whole film. A hint that there is no Buffy persona or Muffy Failed a Spot Check. Muffy claims the water main is broken. However, later in the movie, Nikki gets sprayed with water from the joke tap. Further indicator that everything is fine. You'll notice that in the death scenes things cut away before anything is actually shown. You can also see Muffy grinning playfully when she slashes open the sliding doors, suggesting she was in the fun of the moment. | |

Tarnishing Their Own Beauty: Muffy goes from perfectly permed hair and expensive posh clothing with well-done makeup to barely combed, plain-clothed and bare-faced after the first night on the island, which is lampshaded ("She's wearing crepe sole nurses shoes!") along with her strange behavior. Subverted when it turns out she has been replaced by her murderously unstable twin Buffy, but then double subverted when it turns out there is no murderous twin and it was all set up by Muffy. | |

Slashers Prefer Blondes | |
| April Fools' Day / int_c9561e8b | comment |
Slashers Prefer Blondes: Interesting case since all the female victims are blonde, including the Final Girl, while Muffy is brunette. Of course then subverted when nobody gets killed at all. | |

Something Else Also Rises: Harvey is exercising on the deck when he sees Nikki leaning out of her window wearing nothing but panties and a shirt that is gaping open. He lets go of one end of his bullworker, which springs upright. | |

All Women Are Lustful: Judging by the kitchen conversation, Muffy, Kit and Nikki love lots and lots of sex. Even Nan, the supposedly repressed good girl, got pregnant. | |

Shoo Out the Clowns: Downplayed, the movie has its humorous moments even after things start to get serious, but the comedy takes on a darker tone when Skip and Arch go missing. | |
