20 Mind-Blowing Facts About The Saw Franchise
2. There's A Nod To Pulp Fiction In Spiral
For nearly three decades, Samuel L. Jackson has proven to be one of the most prominent actors in Hollywood. Even though he has played a part in nearly every major franchise including Marvel and Star Wars, he's best known for his standout performance as Jules Winnfield in Pulp Fiction.
And when it was announced he would star in Spiral: From the Book of Saw, the film crew couldn't help slipping in a reference to his character from Quentin Tarantino's masterpiece. If you look closely at the door of the cold case room in the police station, you will see it was made by "Vincent and Jules".
Not only that, the name of Chris Rock's character, Zeke, may allude to Ezekiel 25:17; the Biblical parable that Jules paraphrases in Pulp Fiction. This could have been a mere coincidence but the Saw crew love their Easter eggs so much, it probably was a reference to Jackson's most iconic character.
