Pre-screening hints
  • The entire filming took about 15 to 16 days.
  • With an original run time of 74 minutes, additional footage had to be shot in order to play in theatres.
  • Some of the scenes were later used in an episode of "The Incredible Hulk" which led the director to put clauses in future contracts that wouldn't allow his films to be used as stock footage.
  • The lead actor wasn't signed on to be in the film until the evening before shooting was to begin.
  • During a chase, a service car for a pest exterminator named Grebleips is seen. It is the director's name in reverse.
