Cultural References
The episode takes its title from the 1960 movie The Magnificent Seven. Itself loosely based on Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, the film told the story of how a village hired seven gunfighters to defend it against villains. Of course, the episode turns this around, for the seven here are anything but benevolent.
When Dean and Sam go to the crime scene outside the shoe store, you can hear a CSI tech call out, "You'd better get Grissom."
Referencing Gil Grissom, from the series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, which airs opposite Supernatural on CBS. Grissom is played by William Petersen.

Dean quotes the movie Se7en when Bobby tells him who they're up against. Se7en pitted detectives David Mills (Brad Pitt) and Bill Somerset (Morgan Freeman) against a twisted serial killer whose motif was the seven deadly sins: each of his victims died in a manner suggestive of one of these sins. The killer, Joe Doe, was a relatively early Kevin Spacey character.
