Allusions

 * Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead - The title of the episode is a reference to the 1968 George A. Romero movie.  Romero himself voices a reporter named Don Adaded, punning off this 1978 sequel. (Try saying that slowly.)
 * North by Northwest - The opening credits music evokes Bernard Herrmann's score for this Alfred Hitchcock film. The credits themselves are presented in the style of Saul Bass, the famous animator who designed the credits for several Hitchcock films.
 * Robin Hood: Men in Tights - Monogram has Carl blowing into a hose to power the hot tub similar to how Prince John had powered his hot tub.
 * Shaun of the Dead - Simon Pegg and Nick Frost reprise their roles as Shaun and Ed respectively.
 * Aliens - Buford cries out "Game over, man!" much like Pvt. William Hudson (played by Bill Paxton) says in the 1986 sequel to Alien.
 * "Katie, bar the door!" - When Gretchen says this, she refers to Catherine Douglas, who barred a door to prevent assassins from getting King James I of Scotland in 1437.  The poem  The King's Tragedy , published in 1881, states the idiom of "Catherine, keep the door!" which would be later used in James Whitcomb Riley's poem  When Lide Married Him , in 1894 becoming "Katy, bar the door!" thus meaning that there is trouble ahead.
 * The Hunchback of Notre Dame - Buford yells out "Sanctuary!" like Quasimodo from this Victor Hugo novel.
 * Die Hard - Buford and Doof say, "Yippee-ki-yay!" like Bruce Willis in this film.
 * The Rocky Horror Picture Show - The "Janet! Dr. Scott! Janet! Brad! Rocky!" gag is parodied.  Of course, as we all know, Richard O'Brien, Lawrence's voice actor created the stage show and movie.
 * Ghostbusters - Ferb says the line from Dr. Egon Spengler: "I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought."
 * Escape From New York - When the walled-up city was mentioned at the end of the episode, it made reference to Kurt Russell's 1981 starring sci-fi vehicle where New York City is all walled up and made into a prison.
 * Sir Francis Bacon - Two references are made to the famous English scientist who passed away from a severe case of pneumonia testing on how meat would freeze.
