Penelope/YMMV
- Hollywood Homely: Hearing Christina Ricci utter the line "I know this face repulses you." is...grating.
- Nightmare Fuel: Penelope, to everyone.
- Imagine wearing a carnival mask based on your own formerly deformed face, which is what Penelope does at the end.
- Older Than You Think: The film is not merely a Gender Flip of Beauty and The Beast, it is actually based on the once-popular Urban Legend of the pig-faced woman, almost word for word.
