Re:Lexx references to other shows/movies
There are so many references in Lexx its unreal!
It seems to be a homage to whatever the hell the writers were watching the night before 😈
Some of the obvious ones I noticed:
The Web/The Net – Invasion of the Body Snatchers
Eating Pattern – Soylent Green
Woz – Queen of Outer Space
Wake the Dead – take your pick of slasher movies 😛
Twilight – night of the living dead anyone?
Supernova – Barbarella (the idea of the ‘burst of life’ reminds me very much of the chamber of death)
Nook – Brother Cadfael mysteries
Fire and Water – Mad Max
Walpurgis Night – one 70’s vampire film can’t recall off the top of my head might be ‘the vampire happening’ and title was used in a 1971 vampire film la noche de Walpurgis’
I think thats one of the reasons the show works so well 😀
As there are so many references.
