What's left behind the scenes
- According to his own admission, director Paul Schrader once got so high on drugs that he flatly refused to leave his trailer in the morning. An entire shooting day was lost.
- According to Malcolm McDowell, in the scene where he jumps onto the bed like a cat, he was actually jumping off the bed, then backing out of the room and going down the stairs. The film was simply played in reverse. Presumably, the same method was used in the episode where his character jumps up from the floor, leaps onto the balcony railing, and jumps to the ground.
- The film features black panthers, or rather, leopards. The black coloration is a manifestation of melanism (a variant of the phenotype characterized by a much darker coloration compared to other individuals of the species) caused by a gene mutation. This gene is recessive and is often suppressed by the gene for spotting. Malcolm McDowell initially thought they were painted cougars.
- The part of the New Orleans zoo shown in the film, dedicated to feline predators, is actually just a set built on the soundstage.
- John Heard (1946-2017) almost refused the role offered to him, believing the film would be pornographic. According to the actor, he felt very uncomfortable filming nude scenes.
- The scene in which Anette O'Toole walks down the street and a bus appears, and the sound the bus makes is heard a fraction of a second after she sees it, was taken entirely from Jacques Tourneur's (1904-1977) original film "Cat People" (1942).
