Did you know

• With a $20 million budget, this remake cost over ten times more to produce than The Vanishing (1988).

• When George Sluizer was told he could direct an American version of the book "Het Gouden Ei" (which had already been made in the Netherlands as The Vanishing (1988)), he was told that it would only happen if the ending was changed because American audiences wouldn't approve of the original. In the original ending, Jeff leaves Rita without telling where he went. Jeff dies in the coffin, and Barney survives without being caught.

• Barney wears a fake arm cast when attempting to lure women, a method used by serial killer Ted Bundy.
