Kill the Poor | |

Kill the Poor: While Hector's victims are mostly chosen for being young men/teenage boys, he's shown to choose people from low socioeconomic backgrounds deliberately. | |

Police Are Useless | |
| I Came By / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: Even though they are tipped by Toby that something's wrong with Hector, and later urged by Lizzie to look into Hector again, and also told of what Hector did to Omid, they don't take any of it seriously. And that's not even getting into the blatant mis-use of police power by Hector's police friend, who uses his power to release Hector because Hector is his friend! | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
| I Came By / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: Omid had just escaped being drugged and kidnapped by Hector and is keeping away from the police due to being an asylum seeker. When Hector shows up in a car and requests he get in, Omid obliges. While Hector does threaten to stop his asylum request, it won't mean anything if he's dead, which Omid becomes soon after. | |

Undignified Death | |
| I Came By / int_be30e493 | comment |
Undignified Death: In a valiant attempt to attack Hector and rescue the prisoner, Toby charges into the cell, where he promptly slips on a puddle of piss, falls flat on his face and spits out blood. Hector subsequently beats him to death with a cricket bat, cremates him and flushes his ashes down a toilet. The same supposedly happens to all his main victims, and unfortunately Toby's mother as well. | |

Decoy Protagonist: Not once but twice! Toby, set up as the hero of the movie, is murdered by Hector at the half-hour mark. Lizzie takes over as the protagonist after Toby's murder, only to be murdered by Hector as well forty-five minutes later. | |
