Notes

Trivia

The Show

  • The ticket-taker is clearly modelled on Greg Nicotero.
  • The man in the crowd who gets hit in the mouth with a shoe appears to be modelled on Joe Hill, author of the original story.
  • Eric is seen reading a Creepshow comic throughout the story. The issue's cover is the same as the issue featured in the first film.
  • The ringmistress reveals her name to be Gale Ross. This seems to be a reference to Gaylen Ross, the actress who portrayed Becky Vickers in the first Creepshow film's story "Something to Tide You Over".
