Line 35:
* [[Body Horror]]: {{spoiler|The Liz Creature}} from the second film and the {{spoiler|living, twisted body in the trunk}} from the fourth film.
* [[Bond One-Liner]]: Reggie: "Wow, some cops can be real assholes!" He also has some delightfully cheesy [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]]s.
* [[Brick Joke]]: The entire series has one big one regarding Reggie and whether or not he believes the Tall Man exists. In the first movie, he believes Jody and Mike and even decides then and there to kill him. Then later on when Mike wakes up, the events of the movie are dismissed as a bad dream. In the second movie, which picks up where the first movie leaves off, Reggie believes again at first, only to dismiss the events as yet another bad dream and delusions from Mike. When Tall Man kills his family, Reggie is no longer a skeptic and this lasts well into the third and fourth movie. The fifth movie brings it full circle by hinting that all the events are the result of of an older Reggie's dementia. Making it darkly funny that after all the movies spent on Reggie going back and forth on his skepticism, now he's the one trying to tell Mike the Tall Man is real.
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Booooooyyyyyyyy!!!"
* [[Chainsaw Good]]: In the second film, Reggie has a chainsaw duel with a [[Gas Mask Mooks|Gas Mask Mook]].
