Crying Wolf | |
| TerrorVision / int_78d0ebcf | comment |
Crying Wolf: Not all TV horror hosts are Peter Vincent. When Medusa is initially contacted by Sherman about the alien she thinks it's a prank call and pranks Sherman in return, and when she still arrives to the house in the final act, her panicky reactions at seeing actual aliens are the direct cause of the film's Downer Ending. | |

Horror Host: A parody of one who dresses as Medusa the Gorgon shows up on TV. She becomes a Chekhov's Gunman of the worst sort. | |

Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: The Hungry Beast may be a ravenous monster, but it will stop rampaging if it sees somebody wearing a glove that resembles the one worn by whoever handled it as a baby. | |

Hope Spot | |
| TerrorVision / int_c3c18143 | comment |
Hope Spot: Pluthar, the alien that has appeared in warning transmissions throughout the film, finally appears in the third act and has a solution to kill the Hungry Beast for good and regenerate Sherman's assimilated family... and then Medusa (who now finally arrived to the house), thinking he's an evil alien, gives him a "Hey, You!" Haymaker that kills him. She also shakes Sherman when he finally figures out how to use Pluthar's gun, making him miss its one shot. | |

The Assimilator: The Hungry Beast can mimic the speech patterns of people he eats, and with proper concealment, can make them look perfectly alive by recreating their heads on its tongue. | |

My Little Panzer | |
| TerrorVision / int_f9fc071 | comment |
My Little Panzer: Turns out that the Hungry Beast is considered a pet among Pluthar's species. Downplayed in that the Hungry Beast's species can mutate and become dangerous, and this whole mess happened because of the aliens' method to destroy the beast. | |
