Assault on Precinct 13/YMMV


 * Awesome Music: Which Carpenter composed himself.
 * Complete Monster: The "Street Thunder" members, one of whom shoots and kills a little girl point blank just because she was there. They're depicted as being much more psychopathic than ordinary street gangs, with bizarre honor codes and a willingness to shoot up random passerby just to see if their weapons work. Even a gang member who spent a night in a cell with one thinks they're way too hardcore.
 * Cult Classic: Was originally panned in America and saw little release, but was praised in Europe and was re-released there to great acclaim and a cult following.
 * The French movie The Nest can be seen as tribute to this movie.
 * Hell Is That Noise: Two patrol cops hear a dripping noise on the roof of their cruiser, and assume it's rain.
