Death of a Child | |
| Hooded Angels / int_269e82c1 | comment |
Death of a Child: Hannah's three year old son Tommy is shot and killed by one of the Confederate militia during the sacking of Silver Creek. It is this event, even more than her rape, that turns her into a vigilante and then an outlaw. | |

| Hooded Angels / int_3577923b | comment |
Murder by Mistake: Hannah shoots and kills the General, who is Wes's father, during her initial killing spree when she is taking vengeance on those who raped her. As she later tells Wes, she was in a blind rage and only saw another uniform; not knowing that the General was attempting to round up the renegades responsible for the sacking of Silver Creek. | |

| Hooded Angels / int_45398e01 | comment |
Psycho Knife Nut: Ellie is obsessed with knives. She starts the massacre of the Posse by stabbing one of the deputies with a stiletto she keeps in her boot. Afterwards, she makes certain they are all dead by slitting their throats with a Bowie knife. She takes her time over the first one, obviously relishing it, until Hannah tells her quit wasting time and get on with it. | |

Psycho Lesbian: Ellie has an intense hatred of men after being raped, and is jealously possessive of her lover Hannah, trying to kill anyone who threatens to come between. By the end she is even trying to kill the gang's Team Mom for preventing her from killing a man they were robbing, and would rather both she and Hannah die than be split up. | |

Clueless Deputy: Given Roy's complete inability to handle the confrontation between Wes's men and the bushwhackers, the impression given is that the sheriff of Twin Forks left him to guard the town while the Posse chased the bank robbers is because he is useless. His uselessness saves his life as the posse gets massacred. | |

What the Hell Is That Accent?: Ellie's accents slides from English to French to east coast US without ever getting close to Texan, which is what she is supposed to be.note The actress Juliana Venter is South African, so presumably this was an attempt to hide her native Afrikaner accent, which would have been even more out of place. | |

Leeroy Jenkins: Ellie's Sanity Slippage turns her into this as the movie progresses, leading to her doing things like yanking her mask down during a bank robbery, thereby exposing her identity and revealing that the robbers were women, and throwing dynamite between the two groups during the tense standoff between Hannah and Wes, triggering a Blast Out. | |

Blast Out | |
| Hooded Angels / int_9d02df1b | comment |
Blast Out: At the end of the movie, there is a showdown between the surviving Angels and Wes and his posse in Silver Creek, with the two groups standing on opposite sides of the town square with their hands hovering over their guns. While it doubtful the standoff could have been resolved peacefully given Hannah's determination not to be taken alive, the opportunity never arises, as Psycho Party Member Ellie chooses to lob dynamite between the groups. People dive for cover and as April does so, her hand instinctively closes on her pistol butt and pulls it clear of the holster. Billy sees the gun come out and shoots her, and the firefight is on. | |

Rape and Revenge: Hannah, Ellie and the Widow were all raped by the soldiers who attacked Silver Creek. In the aftermath, Hannah and Ellie get their hands on guns and kill all of the soldiers responsible (and one who wasn't). Hannah later uses what happened to her as justification for the bank robberies the gang commits, but the Widow realizes (even if Hannah doesn't) that they have crossed a line from revenge to simple banditry. | |
