She visits a mysterious department store called Dentley and Soper's and purchases a red dress for her upcoming date. The department store clerk is a woman named Miss Luckmoore, who maintains an unusual and unsettling demeanor.

 Anyone Can Die: Sheila, the initial protagonist, dies over halfway through the film. A new protagonist then takes her place.

 Creepy Crossdresser: Invoked. Reg tries on the red dress on his stag night and, though he doesn't do it again, it leaves an apparently permanent mark on his sanity and his life almost immediately falls apart.

 Arc Number: 36, the size of the dress. Three sixes also hints at its possible infernal origins.

 The '70s: The film is considered an homage to 1970s Italian horror films, and has a decidedly '70s aesthetic, despite being set in 1993.
