What's left behind the scenes

  • The original title of the film can also be translated as "Indestructible".
  • Mickey Rourke, Sylvester Stallone, and Wing Rames were considered for the role of Mike's stunt double.
  • Stuntwoman Zoë Bell, who essentially played herself, performed all the stunts in the film herself. She was also Uma Thurman's stunt double in "Kill Bill".
  • Quentin Tarantino named the character Jungle Julia Lucai after his assistant, Vicky Lucai.
  • The name on Mary Elizabeth Winstead's costume reads "Vipers." This is a reference to the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad (DiVAS) from "Kill Bill."
  • One of the television series mentioned by stuntman Mike is "The Virginians" (1962), in which Kurt Russell played a role.
  • Michael Parks' character refers to his son as Son Number 1. He does the same in "Kill Bill" (2003).
  • Michael Parks, who played Sheriff Earl McGraw, also appears in the same role in "Planet Terror" (2007), "Kill Bill" (2003), and "From Dusk Till Dawn" (1995).
  • The two cars in the final chase are a 1969 Dodge Charger and a 1970 Dodge Challenger.
  • Stuntman Mike has a scar near his left eye. Snake Plissken, also played by Kurt Russell, wore an eye patch over his left eye.
  • The scene where the girls are having breakfast in a diner is very similar to the opening scene of “Reservoir Dogs” (1991).
  • In Dr. Dakota Block’s office, you can notice a sticky note with reminders of what needs to be done. The last entry on the list – kill Bill – is a reference to the Quentin Tarantino film of the same name.
  • At the beginning of the film, numerous sunglasses can be seen on the car's dashboard. A similar shot appears in “Kill Bill” (2003) and “Gone in 60 Seconds” (1974).
  • A scene in the second half of the film, where four girls are talking in a cafe, was filmed in one take. Its duration is approximately 10 minutes.
  • One of the songs on the jukebox is "Misirlou." This composition also plays during the opening credits of "Pulp Fiction" (1994).
  • In "Warren's Bar," you can notice a "CASH ONLY" sign with a famous photograph of Johnny Cash giving the middle finger.
  • Significant scratches and bubbles appeared in the 1970s only at the end of the reel, but never during the film screening.
  • The idea for "Proof of Death" came to Quentin Tarantino when he was talking to a friend about buying a new car. Tarantino was considering a "Volvo" because he "didn't want to die in a car accident like in "Pulp Fiction" (1994)." Regarding the safety of the car, Tarantino's friend said, "You can buy any car and give it to stuntmen who, for $10,000-$15,000, will make it absolutely safe for the driver in any accident."
  • The instrumental version of Jack Nitzsche's "The Last Race" plays during the opening credits of "Proof of Death." This composition also plays during the opening credits of "Village of the Giants" (1965).
  • The working title of the film is “Thunder Bolt”.
  • The license plate of stuntman Mike’s car is JJZ-109. The same license plate was on Steve McQueen’s character’s car in the film “Bullitt” (1968).
  • Mike the stuntman’s cars are a 1971/72 Chevy Nova SS and a 1969 Dodge Charger.
  • The filmmakers deliberately “aged” the film to simulate the look of movies shown in grindhouses.
  • The film contains several references to “Pulp Fiction” (1994), including the “Kahuna” burger and a foot massage.
  • Kim's car has a "Pussy Wagon" sticker on the hood, which is a reference to "Kill Bill," where the main character had a "Pussy Wagon" – a tow truck.
  • The yellow "Mustang" that the girls drive in the second part of the film has "Brand X" written above the license plate instead of a license plate number – this is the name of a musical group that performed instrumental jazz-fusion music in the mid-70s.
  • The duck on the hood of the black "Chevrolet" is the same as the one on the hood of the main character’s tractor-trailer in Sam Peckinpah's film "Convoy" (1978). In "Convoy," this figurine had a name – Rubber Duck. Interestingly, the same duck later appears on the hood of the "Charger" as well.
  • Mike's car crashes into an advertising poster for the films "Scary Movie 4" (2006) and "Wolf Creek" (2005).
  • In a conversation between Abby, Zoe, Kim, and Lee, it becomes clear that Abby's boyfriend cheated on her with Daryl Hannah's stunt double. Monica Staggs, who played Lanna Frank in "Proof of Death," was Hannah's stunt double in "Kill Bill" (2003) and "Kill Bill 2" (2004).
  • In the wine shop, Kim says she needs to use the restroom. Lee and Abernathy respond: “That’s more information than we need.” This is a reference to “Pulp Fiction” (1994), where Uma Thurman says the same thing to John Travolta.
  • During the violent car crash involving stuntman Mike and the girls' car on the final take, Wilhelm's scream can be heard.
  • Mickey Rourke, Sylvester Stallone, and Wing Rames were considered for the role of the stunt double Mike.
  • The original title of the film can also be translated as "Indestructible".
  • Stuntwoman Zoë Bell, playing essentially herself, performed all the stunts in the film herself. She was also Uma Thurman's stunt double in "Kill Bill".

  • The scene where the girls are having breakfast in the diner is very similar to the opening scene of "Reservoir Dogs" (1991).
  • In Dr. Dakota Block's office, you can notice a to-do list. The last entry on the list – kill Bill – is a reference to Quentin Tarantino's film of the same name.
  • At the beginning of the film, a multitude of sunglasses can be seen on the car's dashboard. A similar shot appears in "Kill Bill" (2003) and "Gone in 60 Seconds" (1974).
