What's left behind the scenes

  • Anthony Hickox wrote the screenplay in 3 days.
  • Special effects artist Bob Keen worked 18 hours a day for eight weeks creating the monsters for the film.
  • The scene with the zombies was filmed at night in an ordinary park.
  • In the film's script, the circus freak Cobra Man, locked in a cage, was considered an animal.
  • Once, right during filming, the prosthetic bridge holding the 'vampire fangs' of actor Christopher Bradley, who played the vampire Stefan, broke. To keep the shoot going, the resourceful actor simply attached the fangs to his teeth… with ordinary chewing gum.
  • The phrase “Come on. Today is my day” is a quote from Clint Eastwood’s 1983 crime action thriller, *Sudden Impact*.
  • According to the film crew, the basement scene in the vampire mansion was originally "the bloodiest scene ever to appear on screen." However, much of the on-screen "gore" had to be removed from the film to receive a milder rating.
  • All the missing person posters we see in the film are copies of one of the posters seen in the opening credits sequence of Joel Schumacher's vampire horror comic book adaptation, "The Lost Boys" (1987).
  • The scene in which Sarah throws the dwarf into the mouth of a plant that has just said, "Feed me," is a reference to Roger Corman's cult black comedy, "The Little Shop of Horrors" (1960).
  • The police detective says that 13 people have gone missing in the city over the past two weeks. Throughout the film, six become victims of the creatures: Tony (werewolf), China (vampire), China’s athlete friend (Phantom of the Opera), the detective (mummy), James (zombie), Gemma (Marquis de Sade). That makes a total of 19 victims, one more than required. It turns out that either the detective simply died at the hands of the mummy (as he does not appear in the final battle scene), or, more likely, the Museum had nothing to do with the disappearance of one of the thirteen mentioned by the detective.
