Line 43:
'''{{spoiler|Teddy/Andrew}}''': You were my friend. I trusted you ... You were my friend, {{spoiler|Chuck}}. Oh, I'm sorry, {{spoiler|Lester}}. }}

Line 66:
** In addition, {{spoiler|Teddy told his partner that his wife was killed by smoke from a fire. A constant habit of his is smoking. Another arguable point, as it is the fifties, and smoking was encouraged at the time.}}
*** {{spoiler|Smoke from a fire could have also been refering to the smoke from his gun, as shown when he hullucinates shooting it. Some films from that time period have similar lines}}
* [[Gory Discretion Shot]]: Most assuredly not always present, but still packs a wallop at {{spoiler|the ending, with the "peaceful" shot of the lighthouse. The [[Here We Go Again|previous scene]] makes clear [[Body Horror|what will happen to Laeddis there]].}}
* [[Herr Doctor]]: Played with. Dr. Naehring is undeniably German (although [[Fake Nationality|played by a legendary Swede]]), but his accent is much lighter than required by the trope.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[Titanic|Jack Dawson]] and [[Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind|Stan]] are investigating an insane asylum run by [[Species|Xavier Finch]], where [[The Seventh Seal|Antonius Block]] works. Oh, and [[Watchmen (comics)|Rorschach]] is also an inmate.
** [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (film)|Casey Jones]] is a mad arsonist.
*** He used to be a [[The Prophecy (film)|former priest turned Los Angeles homicide detective]].
*** And he shot [[House (TV series)|Dr. House]].
*** And he [[The Curious Case of Benjamin Button|made a clock that runs backwards]].
** <s> [[The Silence of the Lambs|Buffalo Bill]] </s> <s> [[Justice League (animation)|Sinestro]] </s> [[Monk|Captain Stottlemeyer sans mustache]] is also the very disturbing Warden.
* [[Homage]]: The film is absolutely crawling with them, in particular [[Alfred Hitchcock]]/Vertigo.
** The crooked angles in the lighthouse are a homage to ''[[The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari]]'', a German film told from the perspective of an asylum patient.
