Did you know

• Louise (Lori Nelson) keeps a picture of her now-dead boyfriend by her bed. The picture is that of director Roger Corman.

• Remade, almost line for line, as In the Year 2889 (1969).

• Paul Blaisdell created and portrayed the monster . It was made from foam rubber, claws from a magic shop and toenails carved from white pine. Due to Blaisdell's height, he had limited visibility while in the costume. This caused problems when he had to carry Lori Nelson, and almost caused Blaisdell to drown when the costume began to fill with water during filming.
