Pulp Fiction easter egg!

I just took a look at the weapons section here when I saw this.
On the ingame weapon description of the torch it says:

"When you want to get medieval on someone's ass"

That is almost the same as Marseillus says in Pulp Fiction:

"I'm gonna call some hard hitting gangsters with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch. And I'm gonna get medieval on you ass!"

That is so cool, I love easter eggs!

The Elizabeth Dane and all the things/names connected to her are one big nod to John Carpenters 'The Fog'.

My fav Easter Egg is the computer with a blue error screen including a funny text on it. It can be located down in the warrens(for those that didn't know).

Brings back memories from the good 'ol Windows95 days where I always used to get those error messages.

Actually, Daniel Ash is on the credits because he donated a song to the soundtrack.

For those who don't know, Daniel Ash was the guitarist of legendary goth band, Bauhaus, and lead vocals for Love & Rockets and Tones On Tail.

Peace.

Well there is also the obvious Zombie shootout spree side quest given by a ghoul named Romero in the Hollywood cemetery. Like the George Romero who directed those cornerstone horror movies "night of the living dead" and "Zombies". Also the prince's agent in Santa Monica is called Mercurio like a treacherous cappadocian vampire in Prague in the first game Redemption. And finally, pliers and torch (that could be attached to Marcellus quote in "pulp fiction") are also mentionned in Hannah's "appointment" book as the special treat of Vandal, the obnoxious bastard that sells vampire blood in the bloodbank (god I hate that creep !)

There's also the password "Gil Bates" in Mitnick (like Kevin Mitnick the famous hacker !..) that refers to Arcanum major plot character (who was meant to be a joke about Bill Gates !..) and finally in that same quest the file in the first computer is called Shrecknet like Maximilian Shreck, the actor who played the vampire in Murnau's Nosferatu !.. Dang I love those Troika guys
