Trivia:
|
- 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.
- 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 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."
- Tom Savini, who plays Sex Machine, portrayed a Motorcycle Raider in George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead.
