During a torture scene, Bruce Willis comments saying its "the most pain a human can endure before going into cardiac arrest". This was discovered by scientists of Unit 731 (a covert biological and chemical warfare R&D unit of the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II) who experimented with various ways to torture someone without killing them by actually torturing prisoners of war.
Eli Roth spent a lot of time with Chicago detectives to get the details of the police district (station) correct. In the film in the corner of an open murder case board appears a card that says "We're gonna need a bigger board," a reference to the famous Jaws (1975) line "You're gonna need a bigger boat." This was something Roth actually saw on a board in the police captain's office.
In the film, Bruce Willis' character learns to fire a Glock by watching a YouTube show called "Full Metal Tactics," hosted by real life green beret Shawn Vance. Eli Roth named the show as a nod to Willis' co-star Vincent D'Onofrio who starred in Full Metal Jacket (1987).
Eli Roth wanted the film to be a modern, contemporary take on the story and used morning radio DJs Sway in the Morning and Mancow Muller as a Greek chorus to comment on the violence and function as the film's moral compass. Roth wanted the scenes to feel totally authentic, and sent them the situations and let the DJs film and direct themselves and comment how they would naturally as if it was happening. Roth also used viral videos, memes, and the urban gossip site mediatakeout, which director Roth is a fan of. Roth wanted to show the reactions the way they would really happen, making the point that tragic violence becomes a internet meme within hours.

"[from trailer] Punk Leader: Who are you? Paul Kersey: Your last customer. [Paul shoots the punk leader]"
"Ben: People rely on the police to keep them safe. That's the problem. The police only arrive after the crime has taken place. That's like. Trapping the fox as he's comin' out of the hen house. If a man really wants to protect what's his. He has to do it for himself."
