* To ''Film/PhantomOfTheParadise'', one of Wright's favorite movies: the quick and menacing movements of the hooded killer with the black cape are meant to homage Winslow Leach's when he's the Phantom, particularly the frantic hand-held camera from behind when they're running away from Nicholas after killing Leslie Tiller, and when the killer goes through a plastic tent after slashing it down with a knife, which is similar to Winslow slashing the shower curtain to ambush Beef during the PsychoShowerMurderParody.
