Off the top of my head...

 

They watch Ghostbusters in the prison.

Jesus reads Gulliver's Travels

A zombie is shown wearing a GBH band t-shirt. A punk band from the late 70s early 80s.'

*They are making this zombie into a toy in the next comic book action figure wave, but they changed it from GBH to read "PUNK."

I thought Kindergarten Cop was the movie that Maggie and Axel were discussing watching; I remember because they talk about the "it's not a tumor" line.

Not so much in the comic itself but there have been a few Roamers and Lurkers that have been published in the letter hacks.

Didn't they also watch Turner and Hooch at the prison? I seem to remember Rick saying something like "I read the box, we have exactly 102 minutes" when he, Ty, and Dale were taking inventory of the weapons in the prison.
