Trivia:
|
- Tobe Hooper was originally slated to direct and it was supposed to be filmed in 3-D.
- Dan O'Bannon purposely named the Burt (Clu Gulager) and
Ernie (Don Calfa) characters after the Sesame Street characters of the same name.
- The eye-test poster (seen most clearly after Frank and Freddy run into Burt's office after hearing the first re-animated cadaver) in Burt's office actually reads "Burt is a slave driver" if you put the letters together.
- Jewel Shepard originally took the role of "Trash", but declined the part after she found out what the wardrobe (or lack there of!) consisted of, So the role was assumed by Linnea Quigley, who became a B-Flick "Scream Queen" mostly because of this movie.
- The nuclear cannon at the end of the film was actually a WWII German Howitzer.
