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.
     
  • Jacob Fuller: I'll be a lap dog of Satan.
     
  • Sex Machine: So what's your name, darlin'?
    Kate Fuller: Kate. What's yours?
    Sex Machine: Sex Machine, pleased to meet you.
     
  • Earl McGraw: Well, it's been one long goddamn hot miserable s**t-ass f**kin' day every inch of the way.
     
  • Seth Gecko: I may be a bastard, but I'm not a f**king bastard.
     

Trivia:

  • The band playing in the "Titty Twister" is Tito & Tarantula.
     
  • 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.
     
  • This is one of three movies directed by Robert Rodriguez that feature the tattooed tough guy, Danny Trejo. He was also in Desperado and Spy Kids. In all three movies, his character had a "knife" name: Navajas in Desperado (Navajas is Spanish for "knives", which his character used as throwing weapons), Razor Charlie in From Dusk til Dawn, and Isador "Machete" Cortez in Spy Kids.
     
  • 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.
