Did you know

The last work from screenwriter Jerome Bixby before his death.

The whole movie was shot using two Panasonic DVX100 camcorders, which probably explains the overall grainy look of the film.

There were no deleted scenes for this movie, only three deleted lines, as explained by director Richard Schenkman in the DVD commentary.
