To physically torture or injure someone by means of archaic methods, usually involving tools frequently used for blacksmithing or traditional feudal era torture. Example of such include thumbscrews, flesh peeling, and branding.

"What now? Let me tell you what now. I'ma call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' niggers, who'll go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin', hillbilly boy? I ain't through with you by a damn sight. I'ma get medieval on your ass."

get medieval 

Exactly what the damn title says! This means to go Spanish Inquisition on someone's ass: thumbscrews, hooks, hot irons, needles, and anything else that reminds you of Saw or Hostel. Just picture Hellraiser, and you're Mr.Pinhead. The person you go medieval on is your own poor Frank Cotton.

Coined by Marcellus Wallace in Pulp Fiction, towards the hillbilly who went Deliverance on his rear.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
