Line 20: * [[Executive Meddling]]: A positive example, in that the film wouldn't have been made in the first place, except Karloff owed the ever-frugal Corman two days of filming; as already noted, Karloff was so impressed with the resulting script, he [[Doing It for the Art\|volunteered]] the needed extra shooting time for free. * [[Good Colors, Evil Colors]]: All of Orlock's scenes are shot in mellow autumnal shades, while Thompson's are cold sterile blues. * [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: The screenwriter Sammy Michaels is played by Bogdanovich himself. ** Mike Farrell, the guy caught in the [[Phone Booth]], went on to play B.J. Hunnicutt in ''[[MASH]]''. * [[I Am Not Spock]]: Orlock is Karloff with the serial numbers lightly sanded off. Almost counts as an [[As Himself]] trope. ** Except that in [[Real Life]] Karloff wasn't about to retire, and seemed happy to make this film. * [[Let Me Tell You a Story]]: Orlock gives a lovely recitation of the story [http://www.k-state.edu/english/baker/english320/Maugham-AS.htm "An Appointment in Samarra".] * [[Mad Hatter]]: Like his [[Ripped from the Headlines\|real-life inspiration]] Whitman, Thompson types up a note calmly detailing what he is about to do.
