Plot-Triggering Death: The murder of an Indian girl known only as "Pyagrl*16" starts Elizabeth's story in motion. Her own live online murder is this at the end for another woman.

The Bad Guy Wins: It's costly, though, as Elizabeth kills or severely injures several of the killers before they finally take her down.

Killer Cop: One of the snuff film ring is either a police officer or a crime scene technician and retrieves the camera used in the attack on Elizabeth's sister under the ruse of collecting it as evidence.

Downer Ending
 The Den / int_4e3d253b
comment
Downer Ending: Elizabeth is murdered by the gang of killers, who are revealed to have done this hundreds of times before, and it's implied that they plan to do the same to the British woman who witnesses Elizabeth's death. And the ending where a man pays to watch the killers stalk, harass, and eventually kill the woman implies that they don't plan on stopping anytime soon.

Implacable Man: Invoked but averted. Elizabeth stabs the killer to death, but he later attacks her anyway. It turns out that the killer is actually a whole group of people, and she kills several more later on.

Jerkass Has a Point: After Elizabeth witnesses the online murder, she attempts to inform the police. Naturally, she's completely brushed off, but the officer does point out that most of the 'murders' witnessed online are fake and there isn't any reason to believe this one is not. Additionally, even if it was real, they still don't know where or when the murder took place.

Schmuck Bait: At one point, Elizabeth's boyfriend has disappeared, but his online account is still active and sending her sinister messages. She is then sent a link by this aforementioned account, which supposedly will tell her what happened to her friend. She clicks it . . . and her computer is immediately wiped clean.
