* SequelHook: The end credits said Elvis will return in "Bubba Nosferatu: Curse of the She-Vampires". This movie was planned originally just a CreditsGag, but the movie's positive reception convinced Coscarelli to actually try to make it a reality. Unfortunately, the project never got off the ground.

Added DiffLines:

* ThoseTwoGuys: The two bickering hearse drivers who sporadically appear throughout the film to haul away the deceased. In addition to providing some comic relief, the pair help to illustrate the rest home staff's indifferent, uncaring attitude towards the elderly residents with the two being more concerned with their petty arguments than with the dead bodies they're loading into the hearse.
