* The movie in "Grave Sights" is a huge homage to horror movies. Mordecai tries to rent an Italian film called ''[[Film/Suspiria1977 Libraria]]'', ''Zombocalpyse'' strongly resembles ''Film/ArmyOfDarkness'' complete with Creator/BruceCampbell lookalike hero, the cover art of ''Zombocalypse'' resembles ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}'', the shot of the zombies reanimating in their graves looks similar to ''Film/TheReturnOfTheLivingDead'', and the concept of a movie creating zombies might be a reference to ''Film/{{Demoni}}''.

The solo in the episode, and Benson’s headgear were clearly intended is a Rush tribute

Added DiffLines:

** The solo itself is VERY similar to Neil Peart’s style, including but not limited to a marimba break, polyrhythmic playing, and a gong finish.

* "More Smarter" has Rigby dream about solving the "Hardest Math Problem in the World." This scene is taken almost directly from ''{{Rushmore}}'' and even has similar music. The composer for both Regular Show and Rushmore is Mark Mothersbaugh -- meaning he had to write a knock-off of his own piece.
