Quotes:

-
Jacob Fuller: I'll be a lap dog of Satan.
-
Seth Gecko: All right, vampire killers... let's kill some fucking vampires.
-
Pete Bottoms: Look, he comes in here everyday. We bullshit, and he's used my bathroom about a thousand times. If I said no this time he'd know somethin' was up.
Seth Gecko: Okay, I want him out of here, in his car, and down the road or you can change the name of this place to Benny's World of Blood.
-
Seth Gecko: I know that I have put you through hell, and I know that I have been one rough pecker. But from here on, you are all in my cool book.
-
Earl McGraw: Well, it's been one long goddamn hot miserable shit-ass fuckin' day every inch of the way.

Trivia:
|
- The introduction Razor Charlie gives Santanico Pandemonium ("The mistress of the macabre, the epitome of evil, the most sinister woman to crawl on the face of the Earth.") is taken directly from the intro used for 1970s Los Angeles TV Horror Host "Seymour", played by the late Larry Vincent (and predecessor to "Elvira" (Cassandra Peterson)).
- The line "I've got six little friends and they can all run faster than you can" is a reference to That Darn Cat!, in which Frank Gorshin utters the same dialogue to a kidnapping victim.
- References to previous movies that Quentin Tarantino has been involved with (Pulp Fiction, True Romance, and Reservoir Dogs):
- Kahuna Burgers (in the hotel room)
- Red Apple cigarettes (on the dashboard of the Gecko's Cougar)
- Seth's line to Harvey Keitel : "Okay ramblers, let's get rambling."
- The gun that Sex Machine wields is one of the weapons found in El Mariachi's guitar case in Desperado, also directed by Robert Rodriguez. Chongo beer (also from the earlier film) is available at the bar.
- The dialogue between Kate and Seth while awaiting the final vampire attack ("use 'em on the first couple of these parasites that try to bite you") is virtually word for word from Assault on Precinct 13.
