Quotes:

  • 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 s**t-ass f**kin' day every inch of the way.
     
  • Seth Gecko: Well, your best better get a hell of a lot f**king better, or you are gonna feel a hell of a lot f**king worse.
     
  • Seth Gecko: All right, vampire killers... let's kill some f**king 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.
     

Trivia:

  • The name of the street that Jakob Fuller has to drive down to get to the Titty Twister is called Deguayo. That is also the name of the "cut throat song" played by the villians to John Wayne in Rio Bravo.
     
  • 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.
     
  • Tom Savini, who plays Sex Machine, portrayed a Motorcycle Raider in George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead.
     
  • References to previous movies that Quentin Tarantino has been involved with (Pulp Fiction, True Romance, and Reservoir Dogs):
    1. Kahuna Burgers (in the hotel room)
    2. Red Apple cigarettes (on the dashboard of the Gecko's Cougar)
    3. Seth's line to Harvey Keitel : "Okay ramblers, let's get rambling."
       

     
  • 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.
