The film contains various religious imagery and metaphorical representations of Christianity. For example, one of the main characters, known as Thief, bears a resemblance to Jesus Christ, as often depicted. As a result, he is used as a model for wax effigies for sale. He is later seen to consume the face of one of his effigies before sending it to the sky with balloons.

There are religious symbols and references, which are shown in an abstract and sometimes absurd manner.

Some of the demonic imagery can be frightening, although the musical score tones down the horror-like atmosphere. There is graphic violence and it is all quite surreal and unsettling.

Several creepy and downright insane scenes are shown at the end of the movie. Quite intense.
