After hearing this story, Robert Rodriguez suggested he call the film "Death Proof". Tarantino wanted to buy a Volvo because he "didn't want to die in some auto accident like the one in " Pulp Fiction (1994)." In regards to the safety of the car, his friend had said, "Well, you could take any car and give it to a stunt team, and for $10,000 or $15,000, they can death-proof it for you." The "death proof" car concept stuck in QTs mind for years until he took that idea and used it for Death Proof. Quentin Tarantino stated he came up with the idea of Death Proof when he was talking to a friend about buying a car.Jungle Julia's radio station logo (Austin Hot Wax) is patterned after the film logo for "American Hot Wax" (1978).Jungle Julia has a poster for the 1970 film Soldier Blue on the wall of her apartment and of Paranoia by Umberto Lenzi.

The title "Thunder Bolt" is patterned after the opening logo for the AIP hot rod movie Thunder Alley. Projectionists would also use alternate black leader title cards (like the Death Proof one) when showing films. For example, the kung fu classic Master of the Flying Guillotine had two titles at the opening of the film (Master of The Flying Guillotine and One Armed Boxer Vs The Flying Guillotine). Why? Many Grindhouse era films had different titles when they were released. The original title for Death Proof that pops up for about a second in the opening credits is "Quentin Tarantino's Thunder Bolt".The Ultimate Death Proof Movie References Guide is a community effort to list all films and other media that have directly or indirectly influenced Death Proof, and all films and other media that are referenced to in the film.
