Faust: Love of the Damned / int_11e55c12 | comment |
Faustian Rebellion: This is the premise of the movie, in which the Faustian character John Jaspers uses his powers to become a superhero, and, in typical b-movie violence, takes on the hordes of Hell. Though to his credit Mephistopheles (known here as "M") is at least smart enough to make it impossible for Jaspers to harm him directly until he releases him from his contract. | |

Card-Carrying Villain: M just can't seem to go without reminding everyone that he's the bad guy and that he "thrives on chaos". Adding to that, he's introduced watching frickin' war footage like it's perfectly normal television programming, and he openly admits to Jaspers that he'll regret his deal with him someday. | |

However, these criminals were working on M's orders in the first place, as his Evil Plan required a man overcome by despair to agree to his offer of demonic powers and become M's instrument of death. | |

Asshole Victim | |
Faust: Love of the Damned / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Mephistopheles kills his aide Claire by materializing a snake inside her and cutting open her gut to pull it out, then setting her on fire. She really deserved this, given her previous track record as a sadomasochistic rapist and serial murderess. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Not only is M destroyed as a result of a Faustian Rebellion, but initially it was fool-proof: as part of their contract, John Jaspers couldn't harm him. It's only because of M's greed to claim the soul of Jade's child as well that he relinquishes the original agreement and removes the leash he had on Jaspers. | |

Transformation Exhilaration: Used and subverted; in one scene, M uses his powers to make Claire's breasts grow, a process that she clearly finds incredibly pleasurable... up until she collapses under the weight of her now-gigantic bosom. Her enjoyment soon turns to horror as her backside expands to ludicrous proportions, her limbs wither into stumps, and she melts into a giant mass of literal T&A - until M finally restores her to normal. | |
