Trivia:
|
- During the brain-eating sequence there is a small boar's-head trophy mounted on the wall just above and behind Ray Liota; another reference to the pig massacre scene.
- According to the film's cinematographer John Mathieson, three separate endings were filmed. The filmmakers, unsure as to whether the ending of Harris' novel would work for the movie, filmed three versions: one for Harris, one for producer Dino De Laurentiis, and one for Ridley Scott.
- Veteran character actor Frankie Faison has appeared in all four of the "Hannibal" movies. He had a small role in Manhunter and played Barney the asylum orderly in The Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal and Red Dragon.
- Dr. Lecter's Florentine alias, Dr. Fell, is taken from a rhyming epigram by 17th century English satirist Thomas Brown: "I do not love thee, Dr. Fell; The reason why I cannot tell. But this alone I know full well: I do not love thee, Dr. Fell."
- This film was publicized as having the highest body count in a movie.

Credits Fun:
|
- After the credits, we hear Lecter say "Ta ta, H.", the closing line of the post-script in his letter to Clarice.
- As the opening credits end, Hannibal's face can be seen in the formation of pigeons on the ground before they fly away.
