Intertexuality is the word for visual referencing between films. Films 'borrow' from eachother certain angles, mis en scene, snippets of sound or editing that appear in other well-known films.

- The stabbing
- The dropping shower curtain
- The victim's feet at the end
Many of these have been mimicked in other films.
