Trivia:
|
- The exterior motel set was the same one used in the original Psycho. However, the house was a new set constructed directly in front of the old house on the backlot at Universal Studios. On completion of filming, they moved this second house alongside the first for the backlot tour.
- The last frame in the film is a skull that is superimposed over Vince Vaughn's face. This is the same skull used in the last frame of Psycho, superimposed over Anthony Perkins's face.
- In the original Psycho, Alfred Hitchcock wanted his opening shot to be a long, complete pan/zoom over the city into Marion's hotel room. Sadly, the technology was not yet perfected, and he achieved his effect through a series of pans and dissolves. The new Gus Van Sant remake does a complete travelling shot, as Hitchcock had intended.
- Viggo Mortensen starred in another Hitchcock remake the same year, A Perfect Murder. In both movies he is the female protagonist's lover, begins the first scene of each film in bed with her, and is involved in a crime involving an identical amount of $400,000.
- The kitchen knife is credited as belonging to John Woo.

Credits Fun:
|
- Thanks to John Woo for use of his kitchen knife.
- The logo for Imagine drips in blood instead of water.
- If you look closely at the swamp after the end credits, the water turns red, obviously to blood.
