Cultural references
- Milhouse is seen watching the children's TV show Teletubbies (right) before switching to the movie commercial.
- The Bloodening is based on the horror films Children of the Corn and Children of the Damned.
- The scene where the kids take the different electronics through the fence parodies scenes from The Little Rascals, including Milhouse dressed as Alfalfa.
- The scene where people are running out of the movie theater is a clear reference to a scene from The Blob.
- The song near the end of the episode parodies the song "Kids" from Bye Bye Birdie.
- Grampa's line, "We're gonna gonna teach you rugrats a lesson," may be a reference to the long-running Nickelodeon animated series Rugrats, but it's also possible that Grampa is using the word in its slang sense, as a pejorative term for children.
