Movie Trivia:
- The opening sequence with the items flying out of the cabinet was filmed with the cabinet nailed to the ceiling and the crew where on top of the ceiling flinging items straight down. When it is shown in the film, it gives the illusion that the items are flying straight out.
-
Though the masked killer was called Davey, the production crew have since dubbed him "Plasterface".
-
The plaster used in the death scene was actually dough.
-
Connors' "parents" in the movie were actually played by Schmoeller's parents.
-
The mannequin who gives the female lead something to drink is actually Schmoeller's then-wife.
