This title is a reference to the idiom "Devil's Advocate" and the character of John Milton is named after the author of Paradise Lost (see John Milton). The movie has some minor allusions to the Milton book, for example, the famous quote "better to reign in hell, than serve in heaven," and the concentric fiery circles of hell as described in Dante's Inferno are included at the end of the movie.
